@Crusty: Ok, then you are lucky. This bug is more about not being able to toggle headphone jack sense using the mouse. If I plug-in small speakers to my laptop I want disable jack sense so that external and internal speakers are on. This worked in older Ubuntu releases!
Meanwhile I updated to Natty 11.04 and this bug still nags me. But I found a workaround! This command disables jack sense: amixer sset 'Headphone Jack Sense' off So I added a panel icon to start a small script that toggles jack sense. (see attachment). ** Attachment added: "script to toggle headphone jack sense" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/414746/+attachment/2594450/+files/headphones -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414746 Title: speakers cannot be muted when using headphones regression (karmic) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pulseaudio/+bug/414746/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
