I have a non-first eddition MK1, and the sound turns off when my headphones are in, Ive even tested it. Maybe you just have a faulty unit.mrsnature posted on May 26 2006 at 06:29 PM said:PSyMastR posted on May 26 2006 at 07:22 PM said:The headphone socket was fixed on the non-first eddition MK1's.
what do you mean by fixed? i returned my first edition when the headphone socket fell in, but the non-first edition replacement doesn't turn the sound off when the headphones are inserted, haven't got around to fixing it yet.
any way to fix this? mine does it and I would like it to not so I can watch movies during school againEvilDragon posted on May 26 2006 at 10:36 PM said:The non-first Editions were BETTER soldered, but far from being perfect.
If the speakers don't switch off, one contact of the headphone port wasn't soldered good enough (a common problem).
It seems the nubs on the board side of the headphone socket aren't doing their job to hold it down.DemonStar55 posted on May 27 2006 at 02:26 PM said:any way to fix this? mine does it and I would like it to not so I can watch movies during school againEvilDragon posted on May 26 2006 at 10:36 PM said:The non-first Editions were BETTER soldered, but far from being perfect.
