Headphone jack no longer working - How to test if it is a hardware or software issue?

Hi, my headphone jack fairly suddenly stopped working. The speakers and the sound are fine, but when I plug my headphones in nothing plays. I see that the computer does recognize that headphones are plugged in, and it does change it to "headphones" instead of "speakers" under sound properties.

 

I don't remember installing any particular updates, but I did recently swap out my 4GB RAM to an 8GB stick. Not sure if the tech shop did something that might have ruined it. Does anyone know of a way that I can test whether it's a software issue or a hardware one?

 

thanks
