Hi,
I've recently started using my cing8125 to play music and I have a very odd issue that I can't seem to lick.
When I play music and try to plug in a regular wired headset (like the one that came with the device), I got audio out of both the speakers on the side of the unit and the headset. Adjusting the volume on the device adjusts the volume in both the speakers and headset.
I do not believe it to be a hardware issue as I'm running the popular aku3.3 rom, and I recently flashed a friend's MDA to the same firmware and he is having the same problem.
Any ideas on how to get it to turn off the speakers when I have a headset plugged in? Shouldn't this be the default behavior?
IF you are running Faria WM 5 3.3 try this.

You will find the fix there.
Thanks so much for that! I knew I had read something about a fix earlier, but I couldn't remember where.
For people who are finding this thread in the futurem the fix is the following:
Q- After receiving a call music from player and sound from calls it played from internal speaker even with headphones inserted.
A- set HKCU\Control Panel\Soundcategories\Ring\Speaker to 0

Hi there,
I am having some issue with my O2 Atom Exec external speaker.
When the phone rings:
- I can't hear the ring tone (phone and pda volume settings turned up to high)
When I pick up:
- microphone does not work
- phone speaker does not work
Actually microphone seems to no longer work same with external speaker. I try to play music and no sound comes out externally. When I use the combined stereo headphones and microphone, these work fine. I have tried a hard reset and looking into the Windows registry for some obscure volume settings but this did not resolve the problem.
Anyone else experiencing a similar issue? Please help,
Hi,
You have a problem with the headphone socket. what I would suggest is play a file in media player and put the headphone plug in halfway and gently move it around left to right. You will know when it's fixed because the sound will start coming out of the speakers. This is a known fault that has been around a long time.
Cheers.

Today I faced this problem, I tried to do everything.
Then I did exactly what you said, and this procedure
fixed my speakers. Thank you ,very very much for help.
We can see this thread below, talking about this problem.

Hiya, my wifes Atom has developed a problem with the output through the headset.
While listening to MP3's it's filtering out bass (well the effect is like its turning all songs into Karaoke the low voices disappear!).
Using the phone speakers the audio is fine.
Pushing the headphones in slowly, with no clicks you can hear reasonable audio in both earphones but quietly - low levels are audible.
First and second click, one ear piece audio, with distortion.
In all the way - both ear pieces give audio at full volume but without the bass and some distortion.
So, things I've tried so far. Different headset, same prob. Adapter and normal earphones, same prob. Installed different audio software (tried mort and gsp), same prob. Enabling and disabling the equaliser. Adjusting the volume, same. Soft reset, same. Restore to previous backup, same. Hard reset, same. Opened it up and checked all plugs, and cleaned the headset socket with some isopropyl, same problem.
Anything else I can try? The service centre for these things is on the other side of the country and this is her only phone/media player (it would take minimum 2 weeks an a stack of dough for a service repair).
Firstly, you could provide us with a bit more information on the handset itself? say....
Model and ROM?
Also what kind of handsets you are using?
The stock wired headset? or a third party headset?
name of the media player?
Hi, i ve have the same problem since yesterday , maybe i used some shortcut keys - had a lot of windows opened, now i canot hear people talking in a movie or mp3 - karaoke efect, if i push headpshones out just a little bit the sound is almost normal. I have this problem on my laptop and am using USB headset-- its the same problem with or without USB modul.
many thanks for help
ps: first i made system restore then i reinstalled the codecs - klightmegacodecpack , no help
Hi guys,
Is there a reason why when i plug in headphones ( i tried a few types) sounds will play through both the speaker and the headphones? Is there a setting to turn this off, or is this a hardware or software problem? what do i do?
I downloaded IHeartRadio (Verizon edition) and tried it out with headphones plugged in and the audio definitely did not come out of the speaker also.
I don't know if the speaker muting is software or hardware controlled, but if you're running stock from a fresh reboot and it still is coming out of the speaker I would guess it is a hardware issue.
Hi,
I have an annoying little problem with my htc touch2: when i plug my headphones and try to listen music or talk with somebody (or any action that requires sounds) the sound can be heard on the headphones and on the phone speaker at the same time. I did a hard reset and the problem was solved, but after 2-3 days the bug reappeared. I checked some forums and none seems to know how to fix this.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Have you tried BT Audio? I think you can find the program here in the fórum.
Hmm you can just update to new rom. Most problems are rom based.
Has anyone noticed a problem with using headphones? I have tried 4 different pairs and only managed to get 1 pair working properly. The problem is that when you plug the headphones in the small headphones icon appears in the lower right hand side but when you play the music it comes through both the headphones and also the speaker. It seems to be the headphones are not seating properly.
same problem!!
yess i have the same problemm!!!
i realised that to fix this problem, you have to plug in the headphones while firstly playing any songs through the tablet speakers, then it detects there's headphone plugged in.
This is issue is really pissing me off!! i hope they fix it asap!
yes i had that problem and felt like an idiot when i finally realised that i was sharing my music with everyone on the bus!
very weird problem which has stopped me from listening to music on my a500 even though the audio quality is superior to my Sony Ericsson X10 and my HTC Sensation.
Thanks for the tip - I'll try it out tonight!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
this trick works for me too, but only while the audio is playing through the specific app. if i stop music while doing this trick and change to video it out puts the video out of both speakers and headphones again.
It really has nothing to do with the jack seating, it has to do with the audio mixer and the jack detection.
it should be fixed eventually (hoping with ICS) but for now I have to take my headphones off and check the output like a weirdo anytime I want to switch apps using headphones.
Hi, I have also this problem but I noticed another strange thing : when you listen to a track using headphones the stereo image looks moved slightly to the right, it's not well centered. Is it only a problem of my A500 or is it general ?
Thanks

Are you guys using non-stock ROM or something? I am on stock 3.1 and I am not having any kinds of issues with it, headphones work just fine and the stereo image is as centered as it should. Or maybe it's your headphones, have you tried with other devices?
I'm on Taboonay 2.1 and i can't remember noticing it when i was using stock rom. I only noticed it because i felt the slight vibration coming from the speakers. I have got 1 Set of headphones that work really well with it and it only happens with my other headphones which weren't exactly cheap (typical) but they all work on everything else i plug them into, so i think it's more to do with the seating of the headphones rather than the rom because i've got a pair that work fine, although i now have some doubt so i'm going to try them all out again to make sure
Same problem here, with Taboney 2.1 and different head phones.
Hi, just upgraded to 3.2 original and now everything comes out in mono. No stereo from headphones. Anyone having the same prob? Wow, things are getting even worse....

I had this same problem too on stock HC 3.1
The trick works for me; but is rather annoying trying to drive and play music at the same time
I have recently changed to Lightspeed ROM with Thor 3.7 (the rest) kernel and have not experienced any sound issue yet =]
I have some problems with the last Tabooney 3.2 ROM and headphones too.
Sound goes through headphone and tab speakers.
I noticed that if I unplug and plug headphones twice or three times I could only have sound into headphones and works well.
I never used OTA ROM so, can't say if it works well with it, but there is a prob with Taboonay's ROM.
I can't post in DEV thread (regard to my posts count).
