I saw this method a few times on here, and it makes sense, but I don't seem to have an Audio I/O tab in my Realtek HD Audio Manager. Are you guys running Vista on an Acer Aspire 3680?
I did notice there was a new driver dated 2/1/08 on the realtek website. I installed it hoping to find the Audio I/O tab, but no luck. Headphone jack still not working. About 2-3 hours wasted today...
What an annoying problem. Who would ever think to ask if the headphone jack works??
