Audio Issue [Screenshots]

I just did a fresh install of windows, had all my drivers installed from the CD's i received with the motherboard and graphics card (both 3 weeks old) but now my audio is acting up.

 

Ive got a small bass speaker with an audio jack input which i plugged into the computers audio jack. The speaker is on, but the audio doesnt show so. My audio drivers are the following (right from the CD using the "Total Installer" option like recommended by MSI):

 

•  Sound Blaster Cinema 
• Realtek HD Audio Drivers

Just did this and the audio button is now showing as sound is coming out, but it says my speaker is a headphone, and when theres sound "playing" from it, its not playing on my end. Havnt changed anything hardware related the entire windows update + drivers install

Ok, turns out my speaker is dead. R.I.P. I tried my phones earphones and it works.
