I recently installed Ubuntu 14.04 on my Alienware m14x laptop; it is my first experience with Ubuntu so I might be missing something simple here.

All sound works fine coming through the internal speakers (the tests work, Apps work, music plays, etc.) but when I plugged my Razer headset that I used to use with windows, nothing happened. All of the sound continued to play through the internal speakers and there was no "headphones" option in the sound settings menu. I tried everything with other auxiliary hardware too, I have an external speaker and I tried a regular set of earbuds, both of which worked fine on windows, and had the same issues.

I have also tried everything listed here Speaker works but headphones don't and here Headphone jack not working? to the best of my ability. Does anybody have other ideas? Remember it could be something simple, I have had Ubuntu for a total of about a week now so I'm still learning.
