I found the problem after a painful week of trying different way. This is as far as I understand, the sound card (analogical) is no longer recognised if in the settings any one of the HDMI option is selected Digital and Surround. After deleting all de pulse config file the icon is active again and I can adjust the volume again!! I guess this bug can be easily worked out
but.. Still, the original bug that no sound is coming from the headphone jack is not solved and no solution I have found so far -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1650536 Title: wrong behaviour of interface - audio specific To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1650536/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
