Sun ODF Plugin, and MS-Novell ODF Converter are two different projects.
The following news item also mentions this.

[ilugd] Feedback required on recently released distributions and jack retasking

2007-07-08 Thread Sankarshan Mukhopadhyay
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Those who are using some of the recently released distributions with one
of the chipsets mentioned at the end: are there issues with Jack
retasking on Linux ?

:Sankarshan

- From http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/CS-009244.htm

Jack Retasking - Automatic reassignment of audio jack functionality
based on device type being plugged in. Example: When a microphone is
plugged into the speaker jack, the system can automatically re-route the
mic data to that jack

- From http://www.intel.com/design/chipsets/hdaudio.htm

Intel HD Audio also provides improvements that support better jack
retasking. The computer can sense when a device is plugged into an audio
jack, determine what kind of device it is, and change the port function
if the device has been plugged into the wrong port. For example, if a
microphone is plugged into a speaker jack, the computer will recognize
the error and can change the jack to function as a microphone jack. This
is an important step in getting audio to a point where it ‘just
works‘-users won‘t need to worry about getting the right device plugged
into the right audio jack.

Jack retasking applies to:

Intel® 430 Chipset Family
Intel® 440 Chipset Family
Intel® 810 Chipset Family
Intel® 815 Chipset Family
Intel® 848P Chipset
Intel® 852/855 Chipset Family
Intel® 865 Chipset Family
Intel® 875P Chipset
Intel® 910 Express Chipset Family
Intel® 915 Express Chipset Family
Intel® 925X Express Chipset Family
Intel® 945 Express Chipset Family
Intel® 955X Express Chipset
Intel® 975X Express Chipset
Mobile Intel® 910GML Express Chipset
Mobile Intel® 915 Express Chipset Family
