I've been trying to use headphones on the computer recently and to my dismay, none of the jacks on my soundcard seem to be the right ones. I have a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 soundcard and Klipsch Promedia GMX 5.1 speaker system (I don't think this has anything to do with my speakers, but I may as well include it).

On my old computer, I could just unplug the speakers (the shitty stock ones) and plug my headphones into the same jack and be good to go -- why won't this work now? Shouldn't I just be able to plug my headphones into the soundcard?

Am I doing something wrong here, or can I just not use headphones with my particular setup? It seems like I couldn't be doing something wrong for such a simple little problem, but on the other hand I think it would be pretty damn silly for my soundcard to be somehow not compatable with headphones.

Any help would be appeciated bundles and bundles, cause this is driving me crazy.
