Bug Description
My laptop is an HP EliteBook 755 G2 (from mid 2015) that has a combined headset (headphone + mic) jack that doesn't work. The speakers work fine and they mute when a headset is plugged in but the headphones don't work.
This problem exists in Xenial Xerus and in 15.04 (I use the MATE flavor of both).
A fix in the kernel has recently been made. I've already reported the problem to the ALSA developers [1] and Takashi Iwai has already committed a fix which is currently queued for inclusion in the official kernel:
I'd like to ask that this fix be included in Xenial Xerus's kernel.
If it's helpful, see [1] for more details and links to other people having the same problem.
