I think from your description you are connecting the signal connection to
either the ring connector in TRS 1\4 jack or to the closed connection in an
NC jack which of course becomes open when you insert a jack and therefore
you lose the signal connection. Either way I'd suggest connecting the signal
to the other pin and see how you go.
Also double check nothing is missing, the steiner was one of my first DIY
jobs and i totally missed a resistor, it took Ken to teach me to hold it up
to the light to look for stars (unused pads where the light shines through)
to find it....youd be suprised how long you can look at a board and never
see a missing resistor etc without doing this ;(
let me know if your still stuck.
