Public bug reported: My laptop is an HP EliteBook 755 G2 (from mid 2015) that has a combined headset (headphone + mic) jack that doesn't work. The speakers work fine and they mute when a headset is plugged in but the headphones don't work.
This problem exists in Xenial Xerus and in 15.04 (I use the MATE flavor of both). A fix in the kernel has recently been made. I've already reported the problem to the ALSA developers [1] and Takashi Iwai has already committed a fix which is currently queued for inclusion in the official kernel: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound.git/commit/?id=f883982dc1b117f04579f0896821cd9f2e397f94 I'd like to ask that this fix be included in Xenial Xerus's kernel. If it's helpful, see [1] for more details and links to other people having the same problem.
