hello,
I seems recently I have been having issues with my iPod touch. When I listen to music on my iPod though my internal speaker all sound comes out correctly. It will also come out correctly if I connect my computer speakers to the headphone jack. However when I try the headphones themselves connected to the headphone jack the sound comes out horribly. Its hard to explain, more like a decoding problem. It isn't just the music app but all sound coming out of the iPod
Iv'e tried two pairs of headphones, some Sennheiser MX 580's and some Sony's (I don't know the model number). The Sennheiser's have a standard potentiometer volume control but the Sony's are iPod compatible meaning they have a microphone and "remote".
My guess is that the audio driver is not liking the low impedance of the headphones any more but that is a guess. I have tried restoring my iPod twice now but it made no change. I have also noticed that sometimes the Sennheiser's cause erratic bahaviour of the iPod such as opening the Voice Control dialogue, changing songs, repeatedly starting and stopping the music, and sometimes even the iPod thinks iv'e disconnected them. All of this happens if I move the connector
It all used to work, until I set of for a two week holiday in September. This is really starting to annoy my mate so I hope to get it fixed ASAP if possible. There is a high chance i'll have to get a new device as its all so small inside,
Any questions/advice is welcome and I thank you for reading,
Thanks, Dave
