I'll cut right to the chase~
I switched roms today, after having too many problems with my AOKP install since the latest update, and everything was working fine until just now when my headphones literally stopped being detected, all music coming out of the speakers no matter what, and all i can hear on the headphones is a constant, rhythmic throbbing sound, similar to when the headphones try to connect.
I get this noise throughout boot too, and never used to.
I am honestly fearing the worst that my audio is F***ed.
Rom WAS HydrogenICS 27.04 with SiyahKernal 3.1, it is now NEAT Rom with the same kernel.
Please, if you can help at all do so, i have tried all 4 headphones i have.

I'm not sure if this has to do with the x2 or just cm7 but I can't seem to figure it out. The audio without headphones is perfectly fine, but with them only the instrumental parts can be heard occasionally you can hear kind of a digital chirp of the vocals.tried figuring it out in dsp and music settings but nothing. Any advice on this is very much appreciated.

No problems with or without my headphones under CM7. Maybe your headphone port is bad?
Have you tried hooking up a different pair of headphones to see if it might be the headphones or the connector?
Have you tried it under a different ROM to see if you're getting the same problem?
Is this something that you only experience when listening to music with your headphones? Try checking the audio port to see if its got any lint in it. You can clear it out with a paperclip and you might be surprised to see how much has built up. It'd also be a good idea to test your phone with other headphones.
If this is happening with/without headphones, I'm not sure what would cause this. Maybe try a different music player?
It's happening to me, only on CM7

This happened to my Inspire 4G with CM7.1. The problem dissappeared upon installing ICS with aospX and kept working fine with IceColdSandwich, but several other problems forced me to return to Gingebrear. Now with CM 7.2 the problem is again.
It is not a total attenuation. It is a DSP setting that seems to be optimized for karaoke, because it selectively suppresses voice frequencies. However, all settings in DSP manager are turned off. Turning on Stage Virtual Room barely improves it. I can hear some voices, but really bad.
I think it's probably your headphones wearing out. I had a similar problem and a new pair of headphones immediately fixed the issue.
you got a case on that phone? I stopped using my otterbox 'cause every time i plugged in headphones, they'd act very stupid (sometimes giving the "no vocals" thing, sometimes cutting in and out)
I've also noticed that some headphone jacks don't do a good job of locating themselves and you can actually push them too far in.
I use a set of samsung headphones that have four contacts on the 3.5mm jack instead of the typical Tip-ring-sleeve three contact design. these are the ONLY headphones I have used that give me zero problems (unless I use the otterbox case along with them)
between the stupid angle on the hole for the 3.5mm jack on the phone, and a plethora of minute differences between jack designs, generally the X2 and headphones are a marriage made in hell...
stereo bluetooth works perfectly however
So I have looked just about everywhere to see if anyone else has had this crazy issue and I can't seem to find anyone else who has.
The issue I am having is that when I plug in Beats headphones or portable speakers into the headphone jack, the audio is only output while I am on my home screen. If I open any other app, pull down the notification shade, or even let the phone sleep, audio no longer pushes through the headphones. It continues to be played but is not being output. Things get even more confusing when I put in Apple ear buds because the issue totally goes away. It only presents itself with headphones such as Beats or portable speakers.
I have had this issue on just about every KK AOSP rom I've ran (tried just about all of them) and using different kernels as well.
I have tried wiping everything and starting from scratch with a clean rom and the issue is still there. It's worth saying that the issue isn't on one single app such as Play Music or Spotify, but rather every app that outputs audio.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this I would be very grateful. I am really a fan of the stock look and fly quite frequently so noise cancelling headphones are much preferred over Apple's.
Thanks for any help given!

EDIT: I'm also on the Verizon Note II
My i9300 is running slimrom 4.4.2 build 5 (the newest in time of writing) and I have a problem with the sound through the headphone jack is just crackling and inaudible. Here are the steps I have taken to try to solve this:
Cleaning the jack port
Tried different headphones, that are confirmed to work for long periods of time on other equipment i.e. computer, iPod etc.
Flash different builds of slimrom
Flash slimrom and not install any apps at all
The jack audio works when I do a clean install, but after a while the sound goes back to being just crackling and completely inaudible. This just happened randomly one day with the build 4 of the rom, and since then I've flashed build 5 numerous times to try to find a culprit.
Is there something I've overlooked, and if so what can I do? This problem is really a nuissance as I use my phone a lot to listen to music and podcasts.
Any help appreaciated!
Easy way to rule out software is go back to stock firmware and test. If its still poor then its hardware.
OK, so I'm back on stock, and the problem persists. Any tips on how to fix it? Is it even fixable?
This is hardware issue mate. There are guide to change usb, headphone ect but for this I'd take it to a shop. Sorry
So I've had this phone now for about a year and everything has been fine. I rooted and installed Omnirom 4.4 about a month after getting it and then switched to SlimKat. I'm on 4.4.2 right now and I've just recently encountered a problem with the music audio. It seems to be distorting the vocals and the bass, but the piano/backing instruments seem fine. If I go into settings and turn it to mono it works fine in the right ear. This is strange because my Turtle Beach PX22 headset comes off its inline amp and can be used on its own 3.5mm AUX input/output. It doesnt work like that however. It works with the inline amp plugged in with a computer USB powering it, but not on its own. Normal headphones do not work properly either, they all suffer the same problem as I explained. Speakers, however, work fine. Anything with a large output (such as AUX in car stereo etc) works fine. Full stereo sound, no distortion on anything. But headphones are a big no-no. Any ideas? I recently installed Boeffla for 4.4 and that might have something to do with it. I have reflashed SlimKat and its update recently. I've also reflashed Boeffla. Any ideas anyone?

I have the exact same problem like you. Tried tons of different roms and kernels and nothing works
