Hi,
I am not sure when this happened or whether its a hardware issue or not.
What is happening is the stereo output via the USB connector is somehow out of phase which is causing the sound to drop out and just sound plain BAD.
The stereo bluetooth works great, and I have even gone back to older ROMS and Radio's that I was pretty sure worked fine.
So my question is has anyone else experienced a similar issue and if so is there a fix for this issue.
THANKS!
If anyone is having the same issue please reply..
All you need is a stereo USB adaptor to test this.
please help someone

No problem here - I use HTC and Sennheiser earphones and all's well.
If you didn't already, ALWAYS do a clean install. Things mess up otherwise.

i did a clean install but same problem.
I can confirm this issue on a clean install with a full wipe - my HTC headset (my favorite) doesn't work with 4.2 firmware, but worked well with 4.1,
I can't find the original headset that came with my sony xperia z anymore, but some crappy in-ear headphones (without mic) that accompanied my sony ericson mw-600 bluetooth headset do work also with 4.2.
Same here!! It can't detect my roccat earphone with mic
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
well i have the same problem too, except i'm not using other type of brand for headphone/headset.
i'm using Sony Playstation Wireless Stereo Headset using stereo cable included in it.
before upgrading my xperia z to 4.2.2, it work wonders.
after upgrading just yesterday, my headphones didn't recognized to my phone at all, the output sound is the external speaker on the phone
they didn't work when i switched on the headphone (there are on/off switch on the headphone), but that's because i want to fully experience the high quality sound when it's on and the output sound would be the external speaker on the phone.
sadly when it's off switched, the headphone works well but using standard quality sound. the bass won't come out...
what is happening with the upgrade, Sony???
Y U not recognized ur own brand headphone???
@pisola, I don't think Sony is reading xda forum posts.. If you want to complain, you should do it on the Sony support.
Though I'm absolutely with you.. It's really evil (or stupid) what they did with the headphone jack in the 4.2 update.
I just tried my Sennheiser PX-100 through the 3.5 mm jack, and it works fine.
But I usually use the Sennheiser PX-100/Sony Pulse Elite Edition with the SBH20, though.
I have found the fix for the pulse elite problem. Just change the cable to a normal 3.5mm jack with a 2 black ring connector. The original pulse elite cable come with a 3 black ring connector for mic , it will not work for xperia .
urbeats

if the SoundAbout fix works for you. I uninstalled all updates for Smart Connect, installed soundabout, checked headset, then connected my headphones, and played a song and it played through the headphones fine. I then updated Smart Connect to the current version, and my headphones continued to work as they should! Uninstall soundabout.

Hey there,
I used to listen to music with my new Xperia Z often.
The day I upgraded to 4.2.2 official SONY upgrade, my aux does not work.
Even when attached to 3.5 mm Jack, it plays the music through loudspeakers and not the speakers of CARS.
My girlfriend had purchased the same phone, not upgraded and it works fine through her phone, so my aux or car system is working just fine.
Please help if anyone has the knowledge of this issue.

Hi, i just bought Z1 and my headphones not working. I googled for solutions but everyone says it's software issue. I'm using latest stock firmware. Is this really problem with firmware or i need jack replacement? I'm using Genius GX Lychas headphones. They have 2 jacks (one for mic second for headphones) Is that the problem?
