Try inserting the headphone jack 5 or 6 times. When you insert the headphone jack it lifts up a contact to interrupt the signal to the speakers. If you can hear sound through the headphones at all indicates to me that the problem lies with that contact.

If that doesn't solve the problem then get a warranty repair.
