Comment 289 for bug 1166529

Heyyo Andrei, hmm just to confirm you are using the line-out port on the sound card and not the headphone port correct? I just tested with the headphone port (the one next to the mic) and it does not work even if I select headphone in Pulse Audio (tbh selecting line out or headphone seems to not change anything)... yet if I plug into the line out (the one next to the headphone port) it works fine for me with pulse audio set to either headphone or line out.

As of Ubuntu 4.4 rc3 kernel builds? They did fix that bug so you should be able to run their build of that kernel without issues.

I use a Sound Blaster Recon3D FALTAL1TY Professional PCI-E btw.

Here's what I mean for ports on the back:

The top one is microphone, the one next to it is headphones and the third is the line out that works.
