Similar to this question, except I'm on Windows 7. That question also has no accepted answer, and the answer doesn't work for me.
I've tried all the different "Output Module" settings in the Audio section of the preferences in VLC Player, and still the sound comes out of my PC speaker instead of the 3.5mm audio jack, where my headphones are plugged in.
Headphone audio output works fine for every other application I've used, including Windows Media Player.
How can I get VLC Player to send its audio output to my headphones instead of to the PC speaker?

This solution (from here) resolved the issue:
Note that in my case the restart of the VLC application was definitely required! It may also mean that when I previously tried various different settings without restarting VLC, the changes may actually have worked after restarting VLC.
