[Q] Headphone Jack Intermittently Working - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else having issues with the headphone jack working or partially working? Yesterday, I noticed that I had my phone plugged into the 3.5mm aux cable on my car but couldn't hear any sound and today I tried listening to music with some headphones but was only getting sound out of one headphone jack (these were on brand new Bose Sie2i). For the hell of it, I rebooted and it worked fine -- my guess is this is a software issue.

[Q] Only one sound channel works with external speakers or headphones

The right channel is the only one that works with any pair of 3.5mm speakers/headphones, i have not tested bluetooth.
The internal speaker plays both channels fine, but with speakers/headphones there is just a VERY faint buzzing/humming in the left one.
Tested Sennheiser CX475, Logitech X-240, JVC Marshmallow, older altec lansing and harmon kardon PC speakers, all with the same result. All of them work as intended when connected to another source.
Running stock 2.3.6 with k0nane's rooted kernel and shabbypenguin's CWM
Not sure if this is a HW or SW problem but i bought the phone on saturday 4/28 so i still have until the 12th for a T-Mo store replacement exchange.
Update: Sound is fine over bluetooth, so it's probably not a software problem, guess i'll just trek to the T-Mobile store again.
This may sound stupid, but do you have the jack plugged all the way in? I had a car aux cable plugged in a couple of times with this phone when it would sort of work, but was not clicked in all the way.
May not be your problem, but it's an easy thing to check.
Yeah, I'd agree. It seems like Samsung headphone jacks are "tighter" than what a lot of other devices are. My samsung hs3000 headphone adapter and the headphone jack on the phone itself, are both much "tighter" than my sony mw600 jack.
Yeah, I know what you're thinking!
Just saying that it's pretty easy to think you're plugging in the headphone plug all the way on some jacks, when really you're not.

headphone Jack glitch

Hi, my headphone Jack on my AT&T HTC One A9 are glitched and everytime I plug in headphones the sound still plays through the speakers. I know the Jack isn't damaged because when I used the app sound about to force the sound to play through wired headphones then the sound plays through the headphones. My question is if there is anyway to make the jack recognize my headphones without the help of a third party app

3.5mm Headphone Jack software fix? Help?

Im having an issue with the headphone jack. When i plug in headphones or the aux cord in my car the phone recognizes it and plays music. But if the cord is twisted or moved (not unplugged) it pauses the music because it thinks i unplugged the jack. Is there a fix to this? Maybe a software fix to stop the music from pausing when the jack is unplugged?
That means that the jack is dirty.
