Which Device Did You Plug In Windows 10 0

If you recently bought a new Dell Laptop with Windows 10, you may be wondering why the headphone input jack is not working correctly when you plug in speakers or headphones (or possibly a mic). Well, unlike older Dell laptops that may have had two input jacks, one for the speaker/headphone jack and another separate mic/line-in jack, newer Dell laptops typically only come with one input jack that can do multiple things. So if you plug in headphones to the jack, and still hear sound coming out of the laptop speakers, it's probably due to the jack input set to Line In or Mic In, instead of Headphones or Speaker out.Using the 'Dell Audio' program that hopefully came with your Dell laptop, you can change the audio input to the appropriate device that you want to use the input jack for.

When I plug my headphones in, an annoying Windows 10 themed pop-up window appears saying: External audio device detected. In order to receive the best audio experience please select the type of audio device you have plugged in. Front speaker out. Headphone is always already selected.

  1. If the device isn’t plugged in, hold down Shift and plug in the device. You can also hold down Shift while inserting a disc to see the list of options. To see the options every time you plug in a device or insert a disc, follow these steps: Click to open AutoPlay. In the list next to the device or type of disc, click Ask me every time.

For instance, you can change it to the following: Line In, Mic In, Headphones, Headset (with microphone), Speaker Out, Skullcandy Headphone, Dell Speaker Out, Skullcandy Headset.If you have 'Dell Audio' software on your laptop, you may get a box pop-up come up (if auto popup box is enabled), when you plug-in headphones (or speakers) into the laptop, that says 'Which device did you plug in?' This will give you the opportunity to change the device to: Line In, Mic In, Headphones, Speaker Out or set the Default Device.If you don't see the 'Which device did you plug in?' Pop-up box come up when you plug into the input jack, then do a search on your laptop for 'Dell Audio', and hopefully your Windows 10 Dell Laptop came with Dell Audio installed. If so, click on Dell Audio found in Control panel.In the Dell Audio program, click on the Advanced tab, then in the sidebar click on Jack Information. Now click on the 'black dot' that looks like a Headphone jack, to bring up the 'Which device did you plug in?' Pop-up box.Now you can change the type of device you want your jack to recognize when it is plugged in.
