Here's a weird one for the experts! I have a generic earbud headset that I've been using with my 3G for a long time. Yesterday, the volume with them went down to a whisper, even if the Iphone volume was on full. So, I thought they were broken.

But, if I plug them into my computer, they work fine. And, if I plug another set of earbuds in my Iphone, IT works fine too!

As soon as I plug the older ones in the Iphone, it seems to "recognize" them and turn the volume down, but even if I put it back all the way up, again, I only get a "whisper".

Any ideas?
