Hi Herton, Yes, I started up alsamixer, plugged in the headphones, then changed the speaker volume (hadn't tried that before, didn't think it'd apply to headphones), and sound does indeed come out of the headphones.
Just for kicks, I booted up Joseph's patched kernel and fired up alsamixer, then plugged in the headphones, and I notice that the headphone section does have a volume setting (unlike with the bad kernel). Also, with the fixed kernel, moving the speaker volume doesn't affect the headphones. I'm attaching a screenshot of alxamixer with the good kernel and headphones plugged in. ** Attachment added: "good kernel Screenshot from 2012-07-03 15:55:09.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/994685/+attachment/3212530/+files/good%20kernel%20Screenshot%20from%202012-07-03%2015%3A55%3A09.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/994685 Title: [Dell Inspiron 17] Headphone jack outputs no sound To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/994685/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
