    Here is an easier way to fix it instead of looking for drivers, in device manager where you find your speakers or whatever the device may be, right click the device and uninstall it from your computer, then right click sound, video and game controllers and click scan for hardware changes. This fixed my problem I hope it fixes yours.

    PERSONAL STEAM FIX: I was running into a version of this problem. All computer audio played fine through headphones/external speakers until a game on Steam started, then the audio cut out to headphones/external speakers and immediately started playing through the laptop speakers (this happened with every Steam game I tried). What I found was that when plugging into my laptop's audio out jack Windows 10 gives me a prompt asking what I am plugging in. I actually chose the "headphones" option at first, which led to an evening of the problem I described. It was only after unplugging/replugging the cable back into the audio out jack and choosing ""external speakers" instead of "headphones" did ALL of the Steam games run fine through my headphones/external speakers. Again, not exactly the problem mentioned in the above video, but people might find this video while investigating the specific problem I encountered. I hope this helps someone.

    I almost cried after realizing that my earphones and speaker (connected via aux cable) was not working when plugged into my laptop. I tried searching what to do, they I saw your video. All I had to do was update my drivers. And now my laptop is back to normal. TYSM!

    One of these did work for me. My speakers are plugged in and functional. Suddenly the audio drops and my computer switches to playing audio from the headset that was plugged in. Tried to switch back but computer decided my speakers were no longer plugged in. After a few frustrating attempts at turning it off and on, unplugging and plugging it back in, still appeared to be phantom to my pc.
    Rollback on the drivers is what fixed it for me.
    For those of you who are like me and don't have an alternate device to watch this video on I've included the steps I took below.
    You can find "Manage Audio Devices" Via the search bar or on the control panel. Find the speakers that think they aren't plugged in on the "Playback" tab. Right click on it -> Properties -> Properties -> Change settings -> click the "Driver" tab -> Roll Back Driver. Little window asks you to select why, I just hit other and continued. Bam, speakers were back in business. Hope this helps anyone that was in my situation.

      with Realtek(R) Audio. first, go to Device Manager---Sound, video and game controllers---disable Realtek(R) Audio---do a sound test then plug your headphones and enable again the Realtek(R) Audio.
      ps. for those who have different driver, perform the same procedure in your specified driver as i said above.
