I may be posting this in the wrong forum but since I'm a newbie to macbook I thought I'd start here. I just plugged in my Bose headphones for the first time on my 15" macbook pro (running snow leopard) and I get no sound out of them. The sound just plays through the on board speakers of the macbook. I went to the sound settings in system preferences and they don't show up in the "select device for output" window. I also tried plugging in a set of external speakers and get the same thing. No sound out of the speakers just out of the on board speakers. Can someone help me with this?

Ok, never mind.....i'm an idiot. I guess I didn't push the plug in far enough. They're working now.
