My laptop is an ASUS X550C with Realtek ALC270 codec.
My headphones worked fine before the kernel update with:
/etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf:
options snd-hda-intel model=inv-dmicBut after the upgrade to 3.16.2-1 I'm not getting anything. I've tried other options such as headset-mic (as I think it may be new and don't remember trying it when I first got the laptop), but with no success. All channels are unmuted and up in alsamixer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

I had this problem on a recent kernel update. I fiddled with alsa-tools for a little while and it magically started working. I was on a laptop though, if your mobo has a built in sound card you might have more problems.

@CamelAmp Stating "fiddling" with alsa-tools, which is a package, is not informative at all. There is always a logical reason, nothing to do with magic. If you have relevant information on this issue, please provide them.

Did you reboot after the kernel update?

I've got this exact same issue. 3.15.x works fine, 3.16.1 and 3.16.2 both have this issue. The speakers in my laptop work fine, if I plug in headphones it is detected and shows plugged in via pavucontrol, and shows that it is outputting sound, but nothing comes out the port itself.

Fixed it. Adding this to a file in /etc/modprobe.d made my headphones work exactly as they used to (and speakers remained working too):
options snd-hda-intel index=1,0Offline
emeres - Thanks, I have looked at the other posts and hadn't found anything that helped.
After trying a few things with hdajackretask the headphones are now working. But, I haven't left anything 'retasked'. Does anybody know which file the program edits? I'd be interested to know if there are any additions that have solved the problem.
In alsamixer the Chip is now "Intel PantherPoint HDMI", rather than "ALC270 Analog", it's working so I'm not complaining, I just thought this was a little odd!
As everything's working I'm not looking to make any changes, but if anyone has any insight into why this is now solved that would be great!

I actually found out today when helping someone at work who has the same laptop and issue, that I also had to tick the set model=auto box in hdajackretask and save the boot overrides.

@Tim Butters First, the module snd-hda-intel is loaded with model=headset-mic, not inv-dmic, look at systool. As it is working and you want to find out why, you may want to reload the module using modprobe, read 'man modprobe'. Load the module without options, so that autoprobe can take care of that, and try using the previous module model parameter as well as headset-mic. Hdajackretask is a gui for hda-verb, which modifies the codecs configuration located in /proc/asound/card*/codec*. You also have auto-mute end iec598 enabled, some cards refuse to output sound in the analog path with those settings in place in my experience. So to disable run:
amixer -c PCH sset 'Auto-Mute Mode' Disabled
amixer -c PCH sset 'IEC958' offAuto-mute mode switches the headphones jack automatically on and off depending on load detection.
Edit: Corrected errors.

@emeres Thanks for your help with this, I will have a look at the things you have suggested to try to get to the bottom of it. The key thing is that it works!

You are welcome. Remember to report back, when you find out something, others will benefit.
