[Ülo Parri]

I am using Feisty. When i plug headphones in my laptop sound comes from both speakers and headphones. Kernel module is snd-hda-intel.

A patch which adds support for your sound card was just mailed on the alsa-devel mailing list:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.alsa.devel/46265
The newest alsa-driver (1.014rc4) does not seem to have this patch.
If you don't care to patch an older driver you can compile one the newest snapshots
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/alsa/snapshot/driver
which presumably have the patch.

I hope this helps.

I have the same problem with my hp dv2000,

The sound worked for 2 days but then stopped working.

I confirm this problem on a Sony Vaio VGN-N230N.

[Daann (daanspanjers)]

This is a solution that worked on my hp dv2000,

maybe it works for you to?

The next stable version of the alsa-driver (1.0.14) should be released next monday (june 3rd).
http://news.gmane.org/gmane.linux.alsa.devel
So if you don't want to go through the hassle of patching the driver as described in the ubuntu forums thread I recommend waiting for Monday and compiling the stable version. Just go trough steps 1-5 in the forum thread replacing "1.0.14rc" with 1.0.14 every where. Skip step 6 and in step 8 just skip the first two commands where the patch is applied as the functionality is already in the driver.

I hope the new driver will be added to the ubuntu-kernels soon, as it has many fixes and improvements for the hda-intel driver, which seems to be very popular in newer laptops.

I've this problem on Gutsy.

I've an Amilo Pi 2515 laptop and when I connect my headphones, the speakers don't mute... I've installed Windows Vista and when I start windows, the headphone's jack have a red light inside, this light is off when I start Ubuntu.

It unfortunately appears that this bug is not yet resolved. If possible, please check whether the issue still exist in the Hardy Heron 8.04 LTS release.

And if so, the Intrepid Ibex 8.10 Alpha2 is also scheduled for release today. It will appear at the following when available: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/intrepid/alpha2 . It contains the actively developed 2.6.26 Ubuntu kernel. It would be great if someone could test this upcoming release via a LiveCD and verify if the issue still exists. If so, please include the appropriate debugging information as outlined at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems . Thanks in advance.

I still have the problem with Hardy Heron 8.04 LTS, I've a friend (with a Sony VAIO, I haven't more details about his hardware) who had the same problem with 7.10 but not with 8.04.

I'll try to get time to test with 8.10.

Thank you!

I've been searching after lunch and...

This: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/114053/comments/30 has worked for me.

:) Thank you!

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test:

1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux-image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test.

--or--

2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD.

Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback.

The 18 month support period for Feisty Fawn 7.04 has reached it's end of life - http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-7.04-end-of-life . As a result we are closing the linux-source-2.6.20 task.

@Ülo Parri, since you are the original bug reporter, is this still an issue with the most recent Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. Please let us know. Thanks.
