I had some problems with my wireless headphone transmitter not playing well with my Garrett AT Pro's internal speaker. The headphones work fine but the AT Pro internal speaker would not turn off. I sent an e-mail to Garrett and they confirmed that the AT Pro senses the impedance of the headphone in order to determine that it should turn off the speaker. Garrett engineering said a resistor in the range of 1,000 to 10,000 ohms across the headphone connector will solve the problem.
SO... if your headphone (or wireless transmitter, in my case) works but doesn't turn off the speaker, it is likely that the headphone's impedance is too high. I found an easy solution from another forum.
Radio Shack headphone extension with volume control - Part Number - 42-2559 ($9.99). use this between your headphone and the AT Pro Adapter jack, and it puts the required load on the adapter to turn off the speaker. For me it worked like a charm. Here is my AT Pro with the Adapter, extension cord with volume control and wireless transmitter- all tucked under the cuff.
