It’s pretty ironic to have problems with audio not recognizing headphones… on WINDOWS.

Multi-trillion (10^12) dollar company, btw.

(Both laptops are reasonably new.)

    Dell laptop at a fortune 500. They locked USB and audio down hard on these laptops. Flahsdrives don’t work unless you get an approved dongle. Wired headphones only allow either the mic or headphone output to be working, never both. So I end up using the laptop mic and headphone output.

    But Bluetooth is fair game and everything works just fine there 🙃

      You raise a good point and everybody rage commenting really doesn’t help - I wonder if they’re using the analog sockets or USB devices?
