What should I do if the hub/dock's 3.5mm audio port is not working?

Modified on Wed, 22 Feb, 2023 at 8:47 AM



When you plug a 3.5mm audio device such as a headphone, headset, etc., into the hub/dock’s audio port, but no sound is heard from the audio device, the issue may be caused by the connected laptop, audio device, or hub/dock. 

 

Here are some troubleshooting tips that may help you locate and resolve the problem.

 

For laptops:

  • Make sure that you set the audio output to the correct mode on your laptop:

macOS: Open System Preference > Sound > Output > External Headphone.

Windows: Left-click the sound icon in the taskbar. Select the device in the drop-down menu > Choose the connected headset.

  • Try this device with a different laptop to see if the issue persists.

 

For 3.5mm audio devices:

  • Confirm whether the audio device can work normally without the hub/dock.
  • Try a different 3.5mm audio device.

 

For hubs/docks:

  • Try with a different hub/dock with a 3.5mm audio port to see whether the device can work well.
