Stuck in headphone mode

Hi

my iPad is stuck in headphone mode. I’ve tried turning it off and on, switching airplane mode off and on, doing a hard reset, installing the latest iOS and finally erasing the settings with a factory reset. All to no avail. If I plug headphones in I can hear the sound, but without the headphones I can’t hear anything.


any thoughts from the collective mind?


cheers

iPad, 16

You can try inserting and removing the headphones several times. See if that releases it. If it doesn’t work, that’s almost always a broken/damaged headphone jack.


That would be a hardware problem.
