How to switch sound from speakers to regular headphones

Now consider the option in which the purchased headphones would automatically connect, and in the opposite situation, turning them off, the sound again goes directly to the speakers. To do this, you need a method using a USB wire. Of course, this method is one of the simplest, because the windows operating system is able to memorize various operating modes of individual devices. Therefore, if you imagine that you are connecting an accessory to a PC for the first time, you must adhere to the following action plan:

1. First you need to turn to the settings, which is unique to sound reproducing structures, and then mark the unit by default.
2. From now on, audio will be played exclusively through headphones.
3. In the subsequent shutdown of the active device, you need to make sure that the sound card is automatically selected. In case this did not happen, you need to designate it as such.
4. Next, try reinserting the headphones into the usb connector. Now they must be selected independently by the system.

• If the sound does not play, then you need to set the status necessary for them by pressing the "set as default" button.
• To verify that the headphones work, it is advisable to connect them to any smartphone. If there is no sound, then the problem lies directly in the product itself.

In some cases, additional installation of a special driver will be required.
