Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-media
In 9.04 Jaunty there doesn't seem to be a way to play sound only through
speakers plugged that are plugged in through the "green" plug. The PCM volume
must be enabled for sound to also feed through the plugged in speakers, which
means there is no way to:
1) play sound only into a headset while on a VOIP call
2) use the volume control on the physical speakers to mute sound (turning down
the volume on the external speakers only affects the speakers, not the internal
speakers as well).
I'm not sure if this is a usability problem (configuration) or a true
technical bug with the sliders. Either way it is definitely a bug if I
can't figure it out within a few minutes of playing and testing with
sounds.
Note: this does work in 8.10 with my laptop (plugging in external
speakers "disables" the laptop built-in speakers).
