It sounds like you may have a defective headphone jack. I'm sorry, but if this is the case, you're kinda screwed. I had this happen to two PPC-6700s. The problem is that there is a switch within the jack that gets stuck. If you're willing to, there are a couple things you might try to do.
First, shine a very bright light within the jack to see if there is anything foreign in there or if you can see anything bent. If so, use a sewing needle and try to remove/bend-back accordingly.
Another thing to try is this: remove battery. Wrap an alcohol pad once or twice around a 3.5mm plug and insert the same into the jack. Once it is in the hole, move it all around ... spinning it, pull it in & out (That's what she said.) Do this for about 15-20 seconds. Let it dry completely (5 minutes), then put the battery back in & reboot and try it out.
A defective jack sucks. Hopefully that's not your problem.
Good luck...
