When you connect headphones to your computer the computer will only send sound through the headphones and not allow sound to come out of the speakers. this is the way almost all audio drivers are setup, it detects the speakers and the headphones as 2 different devices and will only play sound through one (headphones first and if there are no headphones then speakers).
The only way I know to resolve this (and I hate this suggestion) is to purchase a headphone splitter. Connect the speakers and the headphones through the splitter, the quality of the splitter will determine the quality of the sound.
You could try going to the audio driver options (if there is any program installed by the audio driver) to see if you can get it to play through both but with both my Acer laptops I have been unsuccessful.
Click on the speaker icon down the bottom right of your desktop toolbar, Click on mixer under the speaker volume, and then click on speakers. Then click enhancements and tick what you would like enabled. Also click into advanced and select sound quality. Hope this helps and please rate
You may want to check the speaker settings themselves within the control panel (Sound Audio Devices + hit the Advanced button under speaker settings). Chances are the current setting is for stereo desktop speakers, you should change it to settings that more closely match your hardware setup...
Try reinstalling sound driver. if still the same issue try external speaker to check if they have same issue. if external speakers work fine that mean its not driver issue and problem with your notebook speakers replace them.
There isn't much space for decent transducers (speakers) in the case; few units have acceptable sound and volume.
There were once very compact external speakers on the market that fit with the 'portable' nature of laptops, I don't know what is now available; check it out.
It's likely that the speakers are blown out if it's quiet and making a crackling sound. To fix that, the speakers can be replaced or you can use external speakers.
cant get this one to work better? :(
