Optical Audio Out Stuck On, MacBook Pro
by Peter Ward on Jul 15, 2008 at 7:57:39 pm

MacBook Pro 15" (1st generation--just over 2 years old)
OSX 10.4.11

The hybrid audio port is stuck on optical out disabling built in speakers as well as headphone out. Is there a way of manually disabling this or changing the output? I'm not opposed even to disabling the port completely to at least restore the speakers. I've scoured the web for a solution, and while this problem is fairly common, I have not found a solution that has worked in this case. E.g., I've tried resetting the computer with headphones connected and even inserting a toothpick as one blogger suggested.

Cheers,

Peter
