Wired mini-jack headphones do not work. When I connect them, the sound is very quiet at the level of 5%, although the real volume is 100%.
Which headphones are these? Some have built-in volume settings, for example, which may be (semi) independent of the mixer settings on the computer.
Also, a bit of system information may help: inxi -zv8 — highlight the pasted output in your reply window and click the </> button at the top of the reply window.

Headphones JBL T110
Thanks, seems those are fairly basic ones without controls. Are you sure it’s not just switching to different “Headset” audio level when plugged in? This is easy to miss.
Also, have you tried enabling “Raise Maximum Volume” in System Settings → Sound → Configure Volume Controls… …?
Note: That output will be much easier to read for myself and others if you edit your post, select it and then click the </> button as I mentioned above. 
Another possibility: poor contact in the socket? Do other headphones (or amplified speakers) work OK?

When I turn on wired headphones, it switches from “Speakers” to “Analog headphones” volume 100, but almost nothing is heard. The sound is not adjustable.
When I open the Alsamiher F6 “Select sound card”, the Bass Speaker defaults to 0. When I move the slider to 100, the headphones work perfectly and I can already adjust the sound as standard. But it works until I pull them out, then I have to do these steps again.
Looks like you are not the only one with this issue:
I’ll keep looking.
EDIT:
I’ll also add this one (also without solution, unfortunately).
I wonder if it’s a bug in Plasma6 which will be fixed? Couldn’t find any bug reports there mentioning this though.
I do see on this machine that audio defaults to the other one (via bluetooth) which currently isn’t working. It did, but I’ll find out if it does again when I run the updates on that machine later today.

JBL Tune110 Spec Sheet shows a built-in microphone and a 4-pole (TRRS) headset jack.
JBL do not state which wiring standard is used, but they do state headset is compatible with IOS devices so it is probably using CTIA standard
CTIA vs OMTP headphone jack standards - audiocurious,com
Swapping an OMTP headset for a CTIA one, or the other way around, will cause the sound to be either very faint or inaudible. To avoid this issue, adapters that can convert between the two types of headsets are available
A similar problem was reported recently for another JBL headset
More likely to be an issue with PipeWire or Wireplumber
PipeWire users are not very familiar with diagnostic commands to debug and report such issues
but some of the PulseAudio diagnostic commands also work on pipewire-pulse

Can this problem be solved by updates? If you have a chance, please report the issue to the manjaro developers.

It’s more likely an upstream fix which is needed, so I’d be tempted to look to the KDE developers/maintainers.
One way to test this theory would be to boot a Live session of another DE flavour e.g. Gnome or Xfce, and see if the issue persists there.
I booted into manjaro gnome live mode (no install) same problem as on KDE.

I’d suspect this is the issue:
You might need to get an adaptor for it to work.
One question: I guess the machine has a combination headset port, rather than separate headphone/line-out and microphone/line-in ports?
Yes, there is one port.
