Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu. Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic) reached end-of-life on April 30, 2011.
See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases Please upgrade to the latest version and re-test. ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Project changed: pulseaudio => mir ** No longer affects: mir -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414746 Title: speakers cannot be muted when using headphones regression (karmic) Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-media Until Jaunty my headphones were activated automatically and speakers muted when I plugged the headphones. Since Karmic, the headphone output is not activated automatically. There is no way to activate the headphones manually by the 'Sound Preferences' gui, i.e. 'gnome- volume-manager' or 'pavucontrol'. When I change 'Connector' from 'Sound Preferences -> Output' from 'Analog Output' to 'Analog Headphones' the speakers are muted, but the headphones do not work. The only possibility to activate the headphones properly is by activating the 'Headphone' switch in 'gnome-alsamixer' (anyway this leaves the speakers unmuted). UPDATE: Since the headphones are working now, there is still no possibility do disable the speakers without muting the headphones too ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 Date: Mon Aug 17 12:22:09 2009 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: gnome-media 2.27.90-0ubuntu1 ProcEnviron: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-5.24-generic SourcePackage: gnome-media Uname: Linux 2.6.31-5-generic i686 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/414746/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
