Check that the 'phone jack is pushed all the way in, a bad connection can sometimes cause this issue. Otherwise, you might have to replace the headphones.

Once, my headphones wouldn't plug in firmly and I got no sound. I thought the socket was damaged. Eventually though I realised that some lint from my pocket had got in the socket and had been wadded down into a very tight hard ball, which prevented the jack from going in all the way. It was impossible to see from the outside, and it took a bit of digging with a paper clip and a very thin screwdriver, but eventually it came free and all was good again.
