ALC269VC speaker headphone troubles

[MatatTHC]

When I plug in the headphone sound is muted for the speaker (which is nice) as well as the headphone.

Setting the Connector in the "Sound settings" to Speaker enables both (headphone and speaker).

I searched the internet. It was suggested to add:
a line:
options snd-hda-inteli model="laptop-amic"
to
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

I found the model for ALC269 (not the VC) but I'm not sure if it is the correct one.
