Sometimes nothing at all and sometimes it plays fine. What the hey is that all about lol. Another thngyou may want to check: If you upgraded to Yosemite, and Garage Band was previously active, but not installed under Yosemite, this can cause problems as well. It updated to the most recent version of Yosemite, though this to me was not the cause of this problem. How can I fix this problem without having to shove a toothpick in the plug socket? This has happened to me twice now. No sound at all: None of the fixes work as the system preferences appear normal.

What does work is this: Connect some headphones into the jack. Play a song in itunes. It will be audible. Pull out the headphones. The song is now audible through the speakers.

Crazy but works for me. Had this problem ever since updating to Yosemite. I have a MBPR 15inch, 1st version. Oh my god, thank you so much! However, this did!

If I plugged my headphones in, they would mute the speakers and the sound would only come through the headphones.

Now, I have to manually select it from system preferences or for the menu bar. Can someone help me figure out if I can get it back to automatic?

Jokes on you Cruz! Maybe you should read the instructions to fix the audio working in your Mac. I never had this problem with OS9. Nor with The only solution is to reboot.

Since I am not interested in quick fixes, but prefer a permanent fix, is the only option then switch to Microsoft 10? What if there is no internal speakers option.

Eerily, it happened just after I dropped my mac! Thanks a ton! Open to ActivityMonitor, list all process and search coreaudiod select and force quit.
