Glen Ditchfield (gjditchfield) wrote : sound control panel can't activate headphones

While running through http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Hardware/Sound/Headphones, I opened "Sound Settings..." in the volume control applet. Sound was coming out my headphones, but the "Connector" field in the control panel was set to "Analog Speakers".

I switched "Connector" to "Analog Headphones". The sound from the headphones stopped. The "mute" indicator on the keyboard lit up, but the "Mute" checkbox in the control panel remained unchecked, and the Volume Control applet did not switch to its "muted" state.

I tried pressing the keyboard "mute" and volume keys, toggling the control panel's "mute" checkbox, muting and unmuting with the volume control applet, and adjusting the volume sliders in the control panel and the volume control applet. The computer remained silent.
