Sound not going through to my headphones on Linux Mint

Post by Blazing_EX »

I recently got Linux Mint 20.3 on my IMac High Sierra Mid 2011. Everything is running fine, except for the fact that when I plug in my headphones it doesn't send the sound to my headphones rather to another speaker in my Computer that it recognises as my headphones but it isn't my headphones. I tried Pulse Audio Volume Control and went to my output and it said "headphones (plugging in") but the sound still went to the "other speaker". I've also tried to do a lot of stuff through the terminal and it hasn't worked. I've tried alsamixer. I've tried every thread i've found and it still doesn't work. If anyone has every encountered this problem and has a fix to it, it would mean a lot. All the important information should be on the screenshot below, if you need any more feel free to ask.
