    I am not sure if this is specific to my laptop, but it never happen on any laptop I had before.

    Anyways, I sometimes have an issue where the headphone jack will stop working and the audio instead will come out of the regular laptop speakers instead. Once i restart the computer it works, but it is very annoying.

    I am pretty sure it is a software issue because i can still hear from my headphone when i go into the control panel and "test" the communication device.

    This just happen again as i opened skyrim, but now even youtube videos will come out of the speakers until i restart the computer.

    Can anybody help? Thanks
