Ubuntu 10.10: Headphones jack doesn't disable laptop speakers

Featured Replies

The problem is pretty much as described in the topic title. I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 on a HP Compaq NC6120 laptop, and when I plug in my headphones the audio doesn't stop playing over the laptop's speakers. This problem doesn't occur in Windows XP.

 

Additional info:

 

I'm running ALSA 1.0.23. Running aplay -l gives the following output:

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: ICH6 [intel ICH6], device 0: Intel ICH [intel ICH6]
 Subdevices: 0/1
 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: ICH6 [intel ICH6], device 4: Intel ICH - IEC958 [intel ICH6 - IEC958]
 Subdevices: 1/1
 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

You'd probably have to manually switch from speakers to headphones. I think that's what I had to do when I was running Ubuntu.

Any idea on how I can do that? I've looked in all the usual places.

 

~edit: Never mind, fixed it through alsamixer. Kind of by accident, but the important part is that it works the way it's supposed to :)

When I installed Ubuntu 10.10 on this system it worked automatically for me. Glad you got it fixed though.
