I have a Dell Latitude E5450 that I connect to a Dell E-Port mode K07A. When I dock the laptop the rear USB ports on the laptop are disabled as documented on Dell's support pages. My question is...
I keep a wired USB mouse connected to one of the back USB (2.0?) ports and USB Headset (Plantronics Blackwire C520) connected to the side USB ports (3.0?).
On occasion, when I undock and redock, the mouse takes forever to become enabled and the headset usually doesn't ever come back until I reboot.
When I undock, the speaker icon in my system tray (Windows 7) shows muted, which is what I want. However, when I dock, the headset remains muted and will not unmute until I reboot the laptop. If I manually unmute the speaker icon, it turns the internal speakers from the laptop on.
Any suggestions on how to fix these 2 issues?
thanks, Jeremy
Try to clean up the docking connector with contact cleaner and a brush. – Ale..chenski – 2017-08-11T21:21:11.863
