Bug Description
The internal speakers work fine, but the headphone sound only works intermittently. When the headphone sound is absent, the only solution that works is a reboot which would usually get them working again. Many hours spent trying all the solutions on-line seem to make no difference. However, since 48 hours, they don't work at all, even after rebooting many many times. Dual-boot Windows system has working sound.
This has been a consistent problem since I got this lap-top. Initially, I had installed Unbuntu 12.4, Mint 14/13 (all 64-bit) and encountered the same intermittent headphone sound problem in all OS's.
Currently I have Linux Mint 13 with Cinnamon 64-bit. Laptop is Asus K55A-DB71-CA.

I'm affected but there is a workaround
go to sound settings > Output Devices > select Built-in analog stereo Port should be HEADPOHONES
The draw back?
You have to repeat the process again when the system is restarted.
