Headset plugged in, but sound still comes out of speaker.

[ElinElin]

When I have my headphones plugged in, the music plays both in them and still comes out from the phone. This also happens with conversations... When my headphones are plugged in, the sound from the other person speaking comes out loudly from the phone, so everyone can hear it! This does not happen when the headphones are not connected. Then the sound just comes from the phone, and conversations are more quiet.

I have tried different headsets, earplugs and speakers, the problem is the same with all of them. I have tried looking at the settings, both on my phone and other applications. I have also googled it, and I have tried to restart my phone.  And I have checked if they really are inserted correctly. Anyone knows what I can do? I just want to hear my music in piece and keep my conversations for myself.

I also checked this link: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z1-Z1s/Calls-ringtone-and-messages-notification-sound-go-from-s...

but it did not solve my problem 😞

Hi,

That sounds strange. Could you perhaps try to boot the phone into safe mode mode to see if same thing happens?

It just happened to my Xperia z5 too! So I googled what happen and found your post. After the headphones was plugged in, the sound is still coming out from the bottom speaker (the talking end) but not the top speaker (listen end). But it's not as loud as unplugged the headphones. It stopped after I restarted my phone, very strange, hope this won't happen again.
