Actually while i had it completely out, I took the time to snip the excess off the leads sticking out from the volume wheel to help prevent it from shorting against the speaker housing. After which, I re-soldered the volume wheel and the headphone jack. After testing reassembly, everything is working as it should. I thought about re-soldering c12, as it looked like it might have a weaker connection but ultimately decided not to as it didn't seem bad enough to cause anything. I'm guessing there just wasn't enough solder flowing through on the volume wheel causing a disconnection. I'm assuming pads on the side of the wheel itself are the ones needed to complete the circuit and those are just a pass-through to the other side where it is soldered?
