Closing.
]]>I'm really not too sure how to troubleshoot this, audio simply isn't my thing unfortunately . However, I will direct you to the Pulse troubleshooting page: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pu … leshooting and the ALSA troubleshooting page because there are some overlaps between pulse and ALSA: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ad … leshooting
Good luck!

What do you mean with "seperate control to switch"?

give? There's no way that set-sink-port is going to help you if the lineout and headphone switches in plasma's GUI have the same effect.

I'll try with set-sink-port 1 analog-output-headphones, thanks.
]]>EDIT: Do you have any ".alsarc" or similar files in your home dir or /etc? Thinking of possible causes for faulty audio, mis-matched/stale/broken/conflicting configs would definitely do it. What does your current /etc/pulse/default.pa look like? In my case, I notice I have the following:
### Make some devices default
#set-default-sink output
#set-default-source input
set-sink-port 1 analog-output-headphones
Right at the bottom. I'm not sure what the purpose of that last line is. I do remember having a very similar issue to you at one point in time though. I'll see what I can do to help.
