Volme goes down by itself

[Neuen]

Hey there

So I've been having this problem for a while now where the volume randomly goes down by itself (Definitely sownds lower, but the system volume value doesn't change) and the only way to solve it is to unplug and plug the headphones or speakers. Sometimes it doesn't work so I have to do it like 2 or 3 times.

I think it's because the motherboard jack is not working properly, so I was wondering if there was a way to change the function of the jacks to use another one as audio output since I'm not using the microphone or line jacks.

My motherboard is an Asus M4A78LT

 

Thanks

if you can use the hdmi on your video card it carries sound through it.  There maybe an output jack on the back of your monitor

Yeah, I thought about it, but my monitor is not even DVI, is VGA
