Re: Audio problems

This could be related to a regression I am seeing on Fedora 20. Pretty much every time a user logs in (or switch user) on Fedora 20 with KDE the audio output defaults to "headphones" and I have to manually change it to "line out", even though there is nothing connected to the headphones socket and there is an amplifier connected to the line out socket. If I do plug in headphones thereafter, the sound switches to headphones as it should. This used to work exactly as you would expect (i.e. defaulting to "line out" unless there are headphones plugged in) under Fedora 19 and 18 before that on exactly the same hardware.

If anyone can point me to a solution I would be grateful.

Regards,
Chris R.

Builtin speakers work for a couple minutes after a boot, then typically stop working. Sometimes may work for a bit longer, but always stop.

Headphones (you have to use a combo headphone/mic, like the one from your smartphone) works no problem.

The schematic from the manual shows the wires going into the jack component and from there to the speaker component. The bios speaker mute button <Fn-esc> can tell the difference if a headset is plugged in or not (mute headset/speaker); perhaps this is an impedence test.

Can this in anyway be a software issue? I suppose I could tear into the unit. I have a busted older unit; I cooked the processor board with a coke (tm) spill. I doubt it got the sound subsystem.
