See if there's a separate volume control for headphones. You might have to look for some extra headphone related switches, in the volume control preferences. Are you plugging them into a headphone socket? If you plug into a line socket, there mightn't be enough power to drive a pair of headphones. -- (Currently testing FC5, but still running FC4, if that's important.)
