Default help with speaker: playing music or phone calls

for some reason, my pre's speakerphone stopped working. well, not entirely.
If I play music, it will only play through the line out. If I make a phone call, it only works through speakerphone or line out. If i press the "speaker" button, I cannot hear the other perons, and the person on the other line cannot hear as well. It only works when in "speakerphone" mode (or using the line out).

Its like its stuck thinking I have a line out connected or headphones connected.

any suggestions?

That's pretty much what you need to do. I'd take it back, it's a known issue (hardware pin getting stuck that results in a software issue). You can also blow into the headphone jack or run the audio self tests found in the last page of launcher. That sometimes clears it up as well.

Yup, playing around pushing a 1/8th into it about a dozen times finally fixed the problem.
