It's pretty ironic to have problems with audio not recognizing headphones... on WINDOWS.

Multi-trillion (10^12) dollar company, btw.

(Both laptops are reasonably new.)

The "Legally Blonde" meme, the top text reads 'WIN11 WORK LAPTOP. You have consistently working headphones audio?' and the bottom text reads 'HALF-ASSED LINUX INSTALL AT HOME. What, like itโ€™s hard?'

On Windows 10, it is not possible to have different audio volumes for left and right. The control exists in the UI but does not work, both channels move in sync when you change them.

    On mine I can also use different outputs at the same time, so I can for example have a video playing through speakers while game audio plays through my headphones. ... I haven't really taken advantage of it, but it is pretty neat.
