Any help with my sound card

I have a sound blaster recon 3di the sound works coming from the speakers unfortunately it also comes through the speakers with headphones plugged in and i cant get it to detect that headphones have been plugged in

What system model is this? Does anything work/change if you open alsamixer and toggle the devices?

Might shed some light as to what is needed to make this work with Linux. I haven’t delved into it just yet.

its an alienware m17x R4 and it turns out that The sound card was just the tip of the iceberg i’m also having Vulkan issues

i’m not sure how to compile it i’m not that good with linux i can fix basic problems and stuff and google is very kind but is there like a guide i can follow that explains how to do it
