headphone jack problem on laptop. Ubuntu 8.04

Asked by bespejo

Hello all. I tried this once before with no success, but I would like to try once more. I have an Fujitsu Siemens AMILO LI 1705 laptop with a card sound Via VT82xx with integrated audio. I installed 8.04 and From there I have the headphone jack problem. Audio through the internal speaker works fine and when I plug headphones in, the audio through the speaker stops, but nothing is heard through the headphones. When I unplug the headphones, the audio returns to the speaker. My headphone jack worked just fine in Windows Vista this came preinstalled. Not having the headphone jack for VOIP and listening to music in public places is a problem. Can anyone help?

There is not one "Switch" Tab in the" Volume Control" where you can check the Headphone.
In alsamixer does not appear "Switch" in the "Volume Control".

Thank your collaboration, but I am not able to configure surround facility.
Because doing double click on upper loudspeker only appears: Master Front,
PCM, Front and Mic. NOT headphone.
Perhaps I must reinstall alsa.
Do you have other solution?.
Thank you again. In any case I continue to solve this problem.
Best regards.

Good day.

Surfing I detected a possible solution that I am going to implement.
This solution served for Ubuntu 7.04 and I think it wil be valid for Ubuntu 8.04.

I'm having this same problem with Kubuntu 8.04 on my hp pavilion dv5000. I have yet to compile the patched alsa from source, as I am waiting for a fix that will either work with the packaged version, or will FIX the package version.
