As a workaround, loading the snd-hda-intel module with the "model=generic" seems to make the auto-mute working.

I uploaded the results of the ALSA script here: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=bb6145b1a62c657c1af981b00dd2e3928b466dcb I have a line out connector on the back of the motherboard (along with line in and mic), and a headphones and a mic connector on the front of the PC. The problem is that when I plug in my headphones, the speakers (connected via the back connector) continue to play as well. Also, I haven't found yet a way to set the volume independently for the headphones and the speakers via the Gnome/Unity sound settings. I can only do that via alsamixer, where the "Headphone" control refers to the headphones, and "Front" to the speakers. --- ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.10 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: mardy 25530 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: mardy 25530 F.... pulseaudio CRDA: country RU: (2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20) (5735 - 5835 @ 20), (N/A, 30) CurrentDesktop: Unity DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=37820918-257b-4b60-917f-94c55c98fa24 InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-05-16 (4 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20150218.1) MachineType: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
