I've been using XBMC and Windows 7 from some years and I updated to Frodo and now I can't pass the audio through the Headphones.
I'm using this setup:
Video card connected to TV through HDMI
Headphone connected to PC through front panel

All audio like music or youtube goes through headphones, but XBMC audio goes through the TV.
I tried changing the System Audio settings in XBMC to analog and HDMI, but audio keeps going to the TV.

Could someone give me a solution? Thanks.

Welcome to the forums. Go all the way down on the Audio Output settings page and change the audio device for analog audio to the device your headphones are plugged into.

Thanks, I resolved the problem
I'd found that there were more options in a page down, it says "Audio Output Device", where I selected the correct sound card.
I believe it's misleading to have "Audio Output" at the top of the page and "Audio Output Device" all the way down.

No argument there

But glad it worked.

I'm having a similar problem, except that XBMC isn't recognizing the headphones on Windows 8.

I'm on a Lenovo notebook, when I plug the headphone, Windows' sounds switch to the headphones, but XBMC won't change the audio output - nor will anything different show up on Audio output settings.

--edit--
so... if I plugin the headphones, or external speakers, BEFORE running XBMC, it works nicely... but if I plug any of those AFTER running XBMC, no good.

I had the same problem. I changed the output and it worked fine.

Same problem on Kodi v18.3 "Leia". No sound out of hedphone. Digital to speakers works fine
