laptop speaker still making noise when earphones plugged in

i'm using arch (32 bit) and windows vista (need it for printer maintainment and some other tools) on a HP Pavilion dv6000.
in arch, if i plug in earphones, there is sound in the earphones but through the laptop speakers too. this shouldn't be - you know, usually if you plug in earphones there is no sound through the speakers.
in windows, it behaves like it should: with earphones plugged, no sound through the speakers - without earphones plugged, sound through the speakers.

does anybody know how to solve this?

thx, cheers!

Hello!

I had the same problem. I solved it by adding this line in modprobe.conf

options snd-hda-intel model=laptop

Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)

Maybe this will work: options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=laptop or you could try options snd-hda-intel model=hp

I have in my mixer a switch 'Speaker'. Toggling this one fixes your problem, although it sometimes happens that I have to toggle it twice.
Good luck!

I have the same bug and laptop, if you find a solution that works let me know.

The only solution I've found is to mute the "Front" toggle switch in Kmix.

I have:
Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)

and compiling the new alsa 1.0.16 with snd-hda-intel I sorta took some hints from this thread, linked to by the archwiki:

http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=36815   (Read the whole thread first)

and adding:

options snd-hda-intel model=lenovo

to my modprobe.conf worked for me, I dont know if it would work for the 82801H so its up to you if you want to try it

Edit: you might try editing the modprobe.conf and adding that line first see if it works, I had to update alsa to get it to work though

Thanks! That was great advice. Now I can use my headphones without the sound coming out of the speakers at the same time!

Btw. my laptop is a HP Pavillion dv6000

Re: laptop speaker still making noise when earphones plugged in

I have the same laptop and audio device as madeye.  but his solution doesnt work for me.

Do I have to compile alsa myself for this fix?
