Issues with Pulse Audio profiles. Line Out not plugged in but it is

I experiencing not adequate behaviour from KDE Plasma audio manager. Both headphones and speakers are plugged in jacks. Unfortunately, Audio Manager shows that Line out is not plugged in. If I select Line Out as the source then HDMI Audio source is made as default source but audio is going through line out. If I set headphones as default source then audio goes through line out and headphones concurrently. Has anyone experienced such a behaviour?

Re: Issues with Pulse Audio profiles. Line Out not plugged in but it is

Can you post

amixer -c0

as well? Either it's a knob to adjust there, or you will have to redefine the jack location with hdajackretask

Knob is working perfectly. I think it is software issue not hardware.

Here it is output of

Re: Issues with Pulse Audio profiles. Line Out not plugged in but it is

I was refering to software knobs in amixer. What happens if you change one of the input sources to explicitly expose a line out as opposed to rear mic and front mic?

amixer -c0 set 'Input Source',0 'Line'

I get following output:

Simple mixer control 'Input Source',0
  Capabilities: cenum
  Items: 'Front Mic' 'Rear Mic' 'Line'
  Item0: 'Line'

Line Out still remains in unplugged state in Audio Manager.
If I set headphones as default source, audio is going through headphones and line out. If I set Line Out as default source, audio is going only through line out.

I want you to notice that sometime ago I used this guide but it doesn't helped.

Re: Issues with Pulse Audio profiles. Line Out not plugged in but it is

Then it might be deeper rooted, see if the port you think to be line out is seen as something else with e.g. hdajackretask, you should be able to remap it there as well. To properly do this you will have to give it complete access by properly stopping pulseaudio, use

systemctl --user mask pulseaudio.socket
systemctl --user stop pulseaudio.service
systemctl --user unmask pulseaudio.socket #To restore autospawning behaviour afterwards

As I saw in hdajackretask everything is configured correctly. Green Line Out, Rear Side pin is connected with Line out (Front). My speakers are connected to green line out. Any other suggestions?

Re: Issues with Pulse Audio profiles. Line Out not plugged in but it is

So, I managed to come in situation when unplugging headphones Line Out is made as plugged in. However, when I plug in headphones Line Out comes unplugged. Any opinions?
