Public bug reported:

Running precise, though I don't recall this working in oneiric either.

None of the front panel outputs/inputs on the Xonar DG are detected at
all. They are hooked up, as it works fine on Windows. Plugging in
headphones doesn't switch the output, and a microphone on the front is
not detected.

In sound preferences and pavucontrol, the card is listed as having three
connectors: "Analog Output / Speaker" (works), "Analog Output /
Headphones 1", and "Analog Output / Headphones 2." Changing the selected
connector has no effect, and reverts back to Speaker when the settings
view is reloaded. Additionally, setting via pacmd results in "failed to
set sink port."[1]

Interestingly enough, alsamixer has an Analog Output selector with
different outputs than reported by PulseAudio. These are Speakers,
Headphones, and FP Headphones. Switching between these produces an
audible "click" from the sound card (normal, it's in the switching
circuit) so it's definitely communicating with the card. However, the
front panel audio still does not work. Both Speakers and FP Headphones
play out of the speakers, while Headphones outputs nothing at all.

Interestingly, alsamixer has no volume sliders for output, but that's a
separate issue. (The output sliders do work in PulseAudio, so that's
good enough for now.)
