Thanks, Clemens; How were you able to determine that from the "amixer scontents" output. Although I can't disable *automatic* speaker mute on headphone insertion, can I explicitly unmute them again (e.g. with amixer sset or cset)? If not.... "cat /proc/asound/card*/codec*" says it is the Realtek ALC888. Does this mean I have to somehow patch the kernel sound module file .../linux-source-2.6.*/sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c to fix this somehow?
