As I already mentionned in another thread, since the kernel26 2.6.38.3 update I'm not getting any sound in my speakers when my headphones are plugged in the front panel of my desktop.
I'd like to get sound in my speakers even when headphones are plugged in.
I was directed at some "Headphone jack sense" option, but there is none in my alsamixer (even after pressing F5.) Can't find anything anywhere on the web either. Most people want to disable sound in their speakers when their headphones are plugged in... Not me.
I'll try to see if I can find the annoying commit somewhere, but meanwhile if someone has an idea, that would be great!
PS: some technical information...
Gigabyte H55N-USB3 motherboard.
$ lspci | grep -i audio
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 06)
$ cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec
Codec: Realtek ALC892
Codec: Intel IbexPeak HDMI
The speakers are plugged in the rear jack output (not HDMI.)
... and I forgot to say I'm using ALSA.

You realize that the speakers are supposed to get muted if you plug some headphones in the headphone jack, if that doesn't happen it is considered a bug as the new jack sense ... stuff ... is supposed to emulate the old and reliable hardware switch inside the jack. You may be able to pass some option to some module to override this though since everything is done in software now.

Problem apparently fixed in 2.6.38.6! (Or maybe .5) Great .

Hmm thanks. It seems related even though they're not talking about the same problem. If I understand correctly, they're going to break it again in another kernel update...
