Output jack on Asus A6 not working

Asked by Nelson Carreira

Hi there.

I've read and followed the solution given to Joel Boujassy and my laptop's headphone jack still doesn't work...

Can you please tell me if there is another way of fixing it?

Anyway here are the results of the comands:

Have you checked your mixer settings to make sure this output channel isn't muted or set to very low volume?

Hi,

Please try this solution:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=767022

Be aware that the filename /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base in Ubuntu 8.04 is replaced by filename

/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf in Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty)

Regards,

Mark

Hello.

Yes, I did.

I previously followed all the steps described in the answer to Joel,
corrected all the settings and because it didn't work, I just posted my
question...

Thanks for your help.

Hi.

I'm now at the alsamixer console and there's an item «IEC958» wich I can't
identify, that is non active, can you help me with that?

And could you please send me the parameters, so I can set them?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi there.

Just solved the problem!

"IEC958" appears to be the port to headphones (?) on alsamixer and it was on
mute, now it's enabled.

I went to System»Preferences»Sounds» and enabled headset wich was disabled.

Now it's all working fine.

Thank you all for all your help.

Best Regards.
