Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please execute the following command (preferably right after you unplugged the headphones), as it will automatically gather debugging information, in a terminal:
apport-collect 1007462 Also, if you can describe the following, it would also help: 1. Are you headphones attached with the round 3.5mm plug (like normal headphones), or using a USB card/port (like some gaming headsets)? 2. Where the speakers muted before you plugged in the headphones? 3. How did you mute the headphones? (A button on the laptop? In Banshee? In Sound Settings?) When reporting bugs in the future please use apport by using 'ubuntu- bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this functionality at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs. ------------------------- I tried several variations of muting and then unplugging headphones, and this is the only way I got the music to play through the speakers: Note I don't have your type of laptop, so I made do with the following setup setup: Speakers attached to Intel DP67DE motherboard (Realtek audio, analog port out) Headphones attached to Asus Xonar U3 USB sound card. 1. Open Banshee Music Player. 2. Begin playback of music. (I used Daniel Juaraz's "Celeste" from Jamendo) 3. Make sure volume of speakers is NOT muted. 3a. If speakers are not playing music, select the output device of the Speakers in "Sound Settings" if needed, to get the speakers to play music. 4. Plug in headphone. 4a. Do step 3a for the headphones. 5. In Banshee, set the volume to 0. 6. Unplug the headphones. (In my case, I unplugged the USB sound card.) Expected result: Mute should have been maintained when swtiching from headphone to speakers. Actual result: The old volume of the speakers is used, so sound ends up playing again. ---- Note if I try to mute using any of the Unity Desktop controls (Sound Settings or the sound icon on the panel next to the clock) the speakers actually stay muted. ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1007462 Title: Sound unmuted when headphones are unplugged To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1007462/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
