Headphones always reported as connected even if they are not.

Hi to all,
I'm configuring a new laptop with arch and kde and I'm not managing to have  audio automatically go to the headphones when I connect the cable (I have to manually select the Headset audio° the same when I connect an hdmi cable.)
I've seen that in pauvcontrol the headphones are always seen as connected even when they are not.
Is it a kernel bug?
I'm pretty sure the hardware is good because Windows detect correctly when headphones jack is connected/disconnected.
Can you help me, please?
Thank you,
Xwang

Re: Headphones always reported as connected even if they are not.

I've just discovered that when I insert the headphone jack the following event is raised:

cd/play CDPLAY 00000080 00000000

The same happens often (but not all the times), when I unplug it.

It seems as if the headphone jack plugging is "mapped" to a different ACPID command.

This happens adding a file inside /etc/modprobe.d/ containig

options snd_hda_intel model=dell-headset-multi power_save=0

So it seems related themodel of the snd_hda_intel. Can you help me finding the correct one, please?

[EDIT]
Indeed the driver in use is not snd_hda_intel so changing options did not solve the problem:

Can someone help me, please?
For any moderator, should the post be moved to the kernel session? If so, can you do it, please?

Re: Headphones always reported as connected even if they are not.

Does/can you switch with

pactl set-default-sink  alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3-platform-sof_sdw.HiFi__hw_sofsoundwire__sink

and does that stick across reboots ?

hi, thank you for your help.
I've tried the command and i can confirm you that it I can switch using it and it sticks across reboots.
However it still doesn't switch automatically to internal speakers when I unplug the headphone from the audio out port, so I have to manually select them from the kmix tray icon applet.
Headphones is always reported as connected by pauvcontrol.

Re: Headphones always reported as connected even if they are not.

Likely driver issue, you could check with acpid whether unplugging the headset generates an event where you can invoke the appropriate pactl command: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Acpid

I've tried, but no "realiable" event is generated ...
... where should I open this kind of bug?

No solution.
The issue is still present.
I've solved it using an usb sound card which drives my external soundbar and is attached to the docking station.
This way when the pc is connected to the docking station, the soid comes from the external soundbar.
When it is not connected it comes from the internal speaker. If I want to use headphones connected to the pc output I have to manually chose it and fo the opposite when I unplug them.
