@Janos Zsitvai

Thanks a lot for your help. Without this I would be left stranded with a
very "public" laptop which entertains everybody in the room when I play
some music! But I am a bit confused here.

I have a Vostro 1220, which also has a Conexant 5067 and hence the same
problem. I installed your patched backport .deb from your website and
tried. Nothing happened (still sound from speaker as well as headphone).
My first question: is this not enough? Or is it because I need a
different patch?

Then I installed hda-verb and used the script hp-toggle.sh. Now it
works, but I have a peculiar problem. If I run mplayer (or similar)
successively on some music file from a terminal, the sound comes out
consistently through the speaker or the headphone, depending on the last
toggled state. But if I play some music file from the internet (using
mplayer firefox plugin), every time I play a new file, the sound reverts
back to the speaker, and I have to run hp-toggle.sh again to bring it
back to the headphone. If I do not toggle, it still comes out of the
speaker for the next link. One has to toggle every time the mplayer
starts to have the sound in the headphone.

I am wondering if I need to something more to get this fixed.

The details of my system are as follows:
