Ok I have done some more digging, I set model=auto and everything worked fine even the Jack detected the mic and muted the speakers, but as I have 5.1 surround system built in I was only able to get sound from the front left & front right speakers. The other speakers where displayed in the test sound screen, but there was no sound despite being at maximum volume.
I installed alsamixer and opened it in terminal and noticed there was an Auto Mute swtich it was displaying as enabled so I turned it off and the original error retunred. I then enabled it again and it when away. I removed the Set model=auto and rebooted my computer only to be greated once more with the original error, but I had full 5.1 sound again. On opening the alsamixer in terminal againe I noticed to my amazement that the Auto Mute is nowhere to be seen. Could this be the problem all along??? I am not a Linux coder but I would like to find out if it could be made visable and enabled to see if this annoying bug can be resovled. Looking at previous bugs from when 10.04 come about the same issue happened with some users back then where alsamixer was not displaying the auto-mute feature. Any ideas guys on how we could make it reappear would be great...... I think I am on to something here. My Acer Aspire is a complex beast, with an Nvidia HDMI sound card built in aswell while the Realtek AC889 is a digital out aswell as standard analogue.
