Obvious questions:  Do the headphones work correctly when plugged into
something else?  Do the headphones plug into the laptop headphone socket
fully?  Do other headphones work with the laptop?

I hate 3.5 mm headphone connections with a vengeance.  They, often, fit
rather badly, and some are manufactured with dimensions that just don't
suit other connectors.
