I recently bought some speakers, however I cannot get them to work with my Windows 7 PC. They connect through USB and a jack. I know they work, because when I connected them to my PC with the USB and then plugged the jack into my iPhone and played some music, it was fine. However, when I plug them into the audio out jack on my PC, no sound comes out. My computer seems to actually have two audio out jacks - one with a headphones symbol, and one with a music note and an arrow pointing away. However, I've tried all the jacks on my computer, with no results.
I've read some other things which mention setting the speakers as the default device through the Control Panel and changing the properties, however this is not possible for me as the computer does not even pick up that the speakers exist at all. The only device that comes up under audio devices is "SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio", which never worked either.
Before this I've been using some USB headphones, and they worked just fine - I just had to plug them in and voila.
Some help with this would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance for anyone who helps me out.
