The two listed options are '1-digital display audio' and 2 'speakers/headphones'.
The other suggestion was to make sure my headphones are my default option.
The drivers within this category all are updated already. The two primary ones I saw being update your sound drivers which if I navigate to my device manager, I only see one category related to sound called 'sound video and game controllers'. I have already searched online and found various suggestions to fix this. I doubt its an issue with my headphone jack because I'm incredibly careful with it when I plug in and remove my headphone cords. It's not an issue with the headphones because I have tried them on other computers and I have tried other headphones on my laptop. With my relatively new laptop, my headphone jack was working just fine up until a few days ago when all of the sudden for as far as I can tell, my headphone jack stopped working.
