It's likely a kernel bug, but you can work around it by editing /usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/paths/analog-output-headphones and commenting out the Jack section(s). But let me ask you - do you have working automute, i e, that the headphones cause the speaker to mute? If so the driver probably recognises the plug event somehow... -- David Henningsson, Canonical Ltd. https://launchpad.net/~diwic
