This seems to be a common defective issue. Make sure it's not just the stock headphones but indeed the Ipod and Apple should replace it for you. I would recommend going to an apple store but you could also try calling them.

I had the same problem... I took my Shuffle and headphones to an Apple Store and they confirmed that the headphones weren't working and replaced them without any hassle. I even got two new sets of those foam-cover-things, which was nice, since mine keep falling off. Now THERE'S a feature I'd like Apple to improve.

The problem with is not with the headphones but with the shuffle. If I push the connector back the left side of the headphones start to work. Any help would be appriciated.

it's only been two months since i got it
i don't have any warranty though and i didn't buy it in the apple store

turns out i had warranty so i send it in
and they replaced it with another ipod
but now the hold switch won't work!

u should try playing ur ipod with other earphones and if the earphones aren't the prolem then send in your shuffle to have it repaired
