Tom,
If you've just started having this problem, my guess is that something has
failed with the jack itself. Unfortunately, those 1/8-inch jacks aren't the
strongest things in the world, and the problem is compounded by the fact
that it's attached to the circuit board (yet another weak link in the
chain). You may ultimately have to send the radio somewhere to have this
repaired.
