Public bug reported:

Hello,

What is working fine:
Everything as long as I don't plug anything in my laptop audio jack. I can 
change volume, mute, unmute, and the internal speaker of my laptop is playing 
the sounds and musics fine.

The problem:
As soon as I plug my audio jack in the laptop, the internal speaker stops, but 
the external speaker doesn't give out any sound. (And yes, I did try with a mp3 
player, also with a headspeaker). Actually for a few weeks it used to not work, 
and then work for a few weeks, and now it never worked again.

What I found:
I noticed that when I start 'alsamixer' and I plug the audio-jack, then the 
'Speaker' channel get muted and set to zero. I'm able to unmute it, and 
increase the volume, and I also need to disable the 'Auto-Mute Mode' to get 
some sound back, but only on the internal speakers...

I just spent quite some time on the forums to find a solution to my
problem with no success. I did try to play with the kde configuration
things too.

For every of theses line, I did try to add it (uncommented) at the end of my 
'/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf' and reboot, but with no change:
#options snd-hda-intel position-fix=1
#options snd-hda-intel model=asus-mode3
#options snd slots=snd-hda-intel,snd-usb-audio
#option snd-hda-intel mode=auto 

I also just try did to use the latest alsa with no success:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/ppa
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get upgrade

Also "strace aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav" show me nothing really 
interresting, but I may be wrong, here are the missing fopen() filtered:
