Make sure you're plugging the CD audio cable into the proper pins on the soundcard...sometimes there's more than one set of pins. Also, check your volume control (near the clock) to make sure nothing's muted or one of the individual volume levels is set too low
The hole's too small? Do you have headphones with the large plug (1/4") & the hole's 1/8"? There are adapters for that...
