[SOLVED] Headphone/speaker jack does not produce audio (T540p)

Hi all,

I've tried a couple different things, but I can't figure out why the headphone/speaker jack is not working on my laptop.
I ran pacman -Syu today, btw.

Info:

I've checked alsamixer and nothing is being muted, even after I plug the headphone jack in.

Any tips on what I should look for or what I may be missing?
(or otherwise, information that I need to share?)

Ah, I forgot about hdajackretask!

But that didn't work either.. mostly because I couldn't figure out how to kill the spawn of the devil, uhmm... I mean pulseAudio, the everliving.

So installed pavucontrol, fiddle with that and.. WTF?!?! it works.

WAT. WATwatwatwat..
