[Elecraft] k2 kpa 100 speaker problem

My new kpa100 looks like its working okay except for the top cover plate
screw holes not being deep enough.  I guess I will just use some lock
washers under the 3/16" screws. No QSOs yet but all seems to check out
according to the specs. However, the headphone jack switch that allows the
speaker to work quit after about 3 months of use, just like the one on my K1
did. The speaker doesn't work, nor does the external speaker jack, just the
headphone jack.  I put in a new one while I had the K2 apart for testing the
kpa100, and now it still doesn't work.  Any suggestions on troubleshooting
this?  I might add that the headphone volume seems low to me.  I normally
have the af and rf gain on all the way.  Should I just give up, and use
amplified speakers with the headphone jack?
