[Solved] Sound stops switching to jack

Hello everyone,

I bough a new notebook (Thinkpad E480) a few months ago and I stopped using linux, because the same problem came up with every distribution: the sound didn't switch to the jack when I plugged in my headphones.

I thought it could be a driver problem - so I decided to try the distribution with the most up-to-date kernel: Arch. I was really happy, that after installing it, everything worked... for a while.

Now I have the same problem. And I didn't even update anything. Just from one moment to the other, whoosh, it stopped working.

I checked alsamixer, pavucontrol, several fixes suggested on similar topics... nothing worked.

Here is my alsa-info: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=71...cbbf3268e0d0be

If someone could help me - I would be forever grateful...

Re: [Solved] Sound stops switching to jack

Your link is broken, also if you've done "everything, and nothing worked" post the results of that research and configurations you've adjusted so that we don't have to repeat things you pesumably already did.

Re: [Solved] Sound stops switching to jack

Sorry about that:

http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=74217 … b94d28da7b

I changed /usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/paths/analog-output-headphones.conf so that the settings match
[Element Speaker]
switch = on
volume = ignore

I added 'options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1'  to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

I tried the solution mentioned here https://www.linuxquestions.org/question … 175587808/ , however I don't have the right settings in alsamixer.

Of course I also checked whether something is unmuted in kmix, alsamixer and pavucontrol.

Re: [Solved] Sound stops switching to jack

Did you revert these things back to default? If not do so for now.

Can you also post

pacmd list-cards
pacmd list-sinks

twice, once during a unplugged and subsequently plugged state? Use [ code ] tags for posting these (and output in general).

Something you will also want to try, because I know that that can screw with jack sensing (on my laptop it immediately shuts down the system, if I plug in a headset ) is to disable power_saving. Create a file like /etc/modprobe.d/sndhda.conf

options snd-hda-intel power_save=0 power_save_controller=N

and reboot

I reverted everything.

I also created the  /etc/modprobe.d/sndhda.conf

and rebooted.

Didn't help.

Re: [Solved] Sound stops switching to jack

OK. I've found a solution - and it was remarkably easy...

I just ran

$ alsactl restore

Thanks V1del for the quick replies

Re: [Solved] Sound stops switching to jack

hmm, did you reboot from windows by any chance? it has a tendency to break registers on the linux side, but yeah from the other output so far it really didn't look like anything was wrong.

Please mark as [SOLVED] by editing the title in your first post.

Re: [Solved] Sound stops switching to jack

Yes It happend right after I did - I didn't think that could be a reason. Now I have a quick fix if it happens again...

Re: [Solved] Sound stops switching to jack

So, I encountered the problem again and this time I couldn't fix it with alsactl restore... The reason for this problem is windows, because, when shutting down, it puts the headphones in some power saving mode. The solution was to boot into windows and do a hard shutdown.

Re: [Solved] Sound stops switching to jack

alsactl init is a more drastic version of restore, with potential more chance at success. But yeah these inconsistencies can be a pain. You might also want to update your UEFI/BIOS sometimes they will include fixes for behaviours like these.
