No media audio, no phone call audio, but speakerphone works on Optimus S

I'm having a problem on the Optimus S where all of a sudden, it seems like the media volume is completely gone.

If I go to ""Settings," "Volume," when I would use the Ringtone slider or the Alarm slider, I get the preview sound to play. When I slide the Media slider, though, there is no sound whatsoever, even if I move the Media slider all the way to the right.

Also, there is no volume during phone calls unless I turn on the speakerphone. In fact, what's odd is it seems like the microphone is cut off until I turn the speaker on. Once I turn the speaker on, I can hear the other person, and I can hear them. When I turn the speaker off, though, both sounds are muted.

When playing music or videos on the phone, there is also no sound.

So to summarize, it seems that the ringtone works, as well as the alarm. But all other sounds -- including regular phone calls -- are gone.

Has anybody seen anything like this? I wonder if a speaker could have blown or something. But it seems odd that the speakerphone works, as do the ringer and the alarm, but other media doesn't.

Any insights??
 
media comes through speaker.... that one is odd... might be an issue with the drivers. I've been having an issue similar..

On phone call, put on speaker, no problem. take it off speaker, no headset volume.

I did a factory reset, and haven't experienced the problem anymore.
