No sound coming out of earphones (ONLY speakers work)

Try the drivers from Microsoft Catalog. They are version 6.0.1.7592 and the R2.79 are version 6.0.1.7541.

http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/...x?q=6.0.1.7592

i can't download that file, the website only shows the microsoft update catalog image.

I tried uninstalling the drivers, but they just came back - automatically re-installed. So I had to turn off the windows setting to automatically download driver software, then uninstall. I then used Lenovo's system update utility to download the drivers. It works now :)

i tried to uninstall the realtek HD audio driver and rebooted which automatically reinstalled again but i still ran into the same problem...

Hi Applepie,
What settings do you have here.

Note to get to the small pic, your headphones must be plugged in then right click on the blue button in my case, yours might be different and select headphones.

but i'm sure i did! Realtek even had a pop up notification showing that I've plugged in my earphones.

Hi Applepie,
OK so did you RIGHT click on either of the two buttons right side,
you will get connector retasking/audio settings select connector retasking to get to that small screen.

Id also tick headphone box lower left corner

With my Lenovo laptop, I get a similar picture. It's blacked out, but I do hear sound from the headphones.
