I would have done the same thing from the back and push out

Re: Remove a Broken Male RCA Plug From Its Female Connector

Heh, I had to do the same thing once... Someone stuck in a 1/8" TRS phone plug into an RCA phono jack (really bright, I know...) and *BROKE* it off, perhaps in shame after finding out it was the wrong plug and couldn't easily pull it back out.

I ended up pushing it out from the back after disassembling the keyboard. It was kind of hard because the jack was partially enclosed and the metal was scraping against the inner conduit, but it eventually came out after prying the edges a bit. I initially thought it was a "normal" case and somehow someone broke the pin of a male phono plug, but when I finally got it out, why do people do this kind of stuff? Female phono plugs do not take 1/8" male phone plugs.

One letter makes a world of a difference!
