For some reason, Pulse Audio is only showing the audio output options for my MOBO's optical audio and my GPU's HDMI audio, but none of the earphone jacks that are built in. I'm using a 24" TV as a monitor the sound works just fine but I've got a little sound bar that I want to plug directly into the PC since the TV doesn't have earphone jacks. I can't seem to figure out how to fix it.
When I typed "lspci -v | grep -i audio" I got:

Hi abelzw, and welcome to the forum.
Run pavucontrol and change the Digital Output (S/PDIF) to Analog Stereo Duplex on the Configuration tab. Does that get the headphones showing?
