internal speakers disabled if booted with headphones

[elyk]

If I have headphones or external speakers plugged in when I boot my laptop, the internal speakers do not work, even when I unplug the external speakers. However, I boot without external speakers plugged in, the internal speakers are functional, although they then do not mute if external speakers are plugged in.

I should add that this is on a dell Vostro 1500 with a Sigmatel 9205 sound card, which uses the snd-hda-intel module for sound playback. I understand that there are already multiple bugs filed about the failure to mute the internal speakers that I mention in the last clause - the primary focus of the bug is the fact that the functionality of the internal speakers is influenced by whether external speakers are plugged in when the computer is booted.

Thanks for your report. This bug seems to be a duplicate of bug 109838, and I'm marking it as such. Further discussion about it should happen there.

Beginning with the Hardy Heron 8.04 development cycle, all open Ubuntu kernel bugs need to be reported against the "linux" kernel package. We are automatically migrating this bug to the new "linux" package. However, development has already began for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. It would be helpful if you could test the upcoming release and verify if this is still an issue - http://www.ubuntu.com/testing . If the issue still exists, please update this report by changing the Status of the "linux" task from "Incomplete" to "New". We appreciate your patience and understanding as we make this transition. Thanks!
