I am using an Asus monitor that has built in speakers that work fine but if I plug my headphones into the pc, it does not automatically switch to my headphones unless I manually set them to default by going to control panel--sound--click "speakers" (headphones) instead of the pre-selected asus monitor.. I also tried opening the Realtek HD Audio and tried setting the default in there but it does the same thing. Any help appreciated thanks!
Only hear from headphones when set as default?

What is your OS version ? Windows ? Linux ? Is it a desktop or a laptop ?
This "auto-switch" is usually observed when you are using a laptop, where the sound drivers are integrated and the OS (Windows) switch it for you.
I have never seen windows auto switching in a desktop.

It is a Windows 7 desktop. I built it myself a few weeks ago (first time) so desktops are new to me. I previously had a laptop with Windows 7 that does as you describe and switched automatically. Do desktops not do this? I have to manually change it each time I want to use my headphones? Not a huge problem if that is the case, more a minor inconvenience. Thanks!
