Alienware 14 Sound Not Working Properly When Plugging In A Headset.
Hello, I got my alienware for 3 weeks now, And when i plug in my Headphone in any plugin spot it doesn't give me good sound, When i play a youtube video with 100% sound on it only gives me like 5% sound, Anyone know a solution?
Thanks.

Hi Leonardvl,
I will be glad to help you. Do let me know if the sound works fine on internal speakers. There is a possibility that the Headphone jack is not compatible with the system I would suggest you to slightly pull out the jack from the computer and check if it helps. In other words try reseating the headphone jack like pulling it half way out. Also make sure that the volumes are raised both on the system and on the player (Like YouTube, Media player, etc.).

Yes, the sound on the internal speakers work fine, But what do you mean with ''Maybe the Headphone jack is not compatible with the system''?

Hi Leonardvl,
Sorry for the confusion. I meant that the headphone jack was not completely inserted into the computer. To determine if it is hardware or a software issue you may try using a known good headphone (if available) and check if it helps. Also try using a different browser and other players to see if the same issue happens.

Hi Leonardvl,
Do you find the similar issue with MP3 files or video files saved in the system? If yes, then you may use the below link to update BIOS and Audio driver:

Select the right operating system, download BIOS and audio drivers.
Let me know about the progress.
