That is very odd, mine lasts for hours and hours.....

I wouldn't think ubuntu and xbuntu would be that different with regard
to audio hardware mgmt, but one guess off the top of my head is that
before I found this thread I turned off power mgmt for snd_hda_intel to
try to get the headphone verb to be sticky.  Obviously this will
increase power usage some, but I have not noticed any difference in
battery life.  If you want to try it, here are the steps I tried (it can
be reversed easily if it doesn't help)...


1) Go to folder                 

    /sys/module/snd_hda_intel/parameters/

2) modify 2 files

    sudo gedit power_save 
        
         change 1 to 0
    
    sudo gedit power_save_controller
        
         change Y to N

3) If you still have an alsa-base file (Mike had me delete mine with his
patch), you can add these lines too...

    sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
         
         Add

         options snd-hda-intel power_save=0
         options snd-hda-intel power_save_controller=N
