One solution is to wire in a speaker/headphone toggle switch when you
replace the jack; then leave the headphones plugged in all the time.
That will eliminate wear on the jack. (It's also lot more convenient
if you do a lot of plugging and unplugging of the headphones.) I
mounted the switch on the rear panel, below the speaker jack. I posted
a detailed article about this some months ago.
