Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v4.8 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".

Thanks in advance.

John, to keep this relevant to upstream, one would want to test the latest mainline kernel (now 4.8-rc4) as it is released.

Could you please advise?

[John (rambo1462)]

Sorry for the delay. I haven’t been working on this bug because right now
I'm satisfied with a usb speaker that works.
The usb speaker also has a aux plug that I can use for speakers instead of
the computer's.
I don't want to install the latest kernel b/c I'm afraid I wont do it right
and it'll mess up stuff.
I'm pretty sure its just an audio jack problem and nothing to do with
Ubuntu. Tell me if/how I can take this off because I don’t want to waste
more peoples time.

Sorry For The Inconvenience,
