daskalos Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 If for any reason your alienware's audio ports (2 headphone) are not working anymore, you can try these two tips 1. Additional hardware You can buy a USB Soundcard... 2. Route audio to the Mic port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozwald Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Has this been a common problem? My m14x is 95% desk-bound with a simple external speaker system, but I've been using the same audio jack this whole time. No issues yet. Pretty sure the other jack still works but I haven't tried it yet. I've never used the mic port at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daskalos Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 Yes you can route audio in the mic port m14xs have 5.1 surround and the mic port produces audio for rear speakers... it doesn't sound good at first, but by using software that converts all the 5.1 audio outputs to stereo, the mic port actually works like a normal 3.5 audio-out port Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
