I intermittently use a docking station. The problem, however, shows up both with and without being docked.
And to again put things clear, nonexistent volume/switches for Headphone and Speaker are not the issue here (and I don't believe for Darko either). All usual controls (Master, Headphone, PCM, Mic, Beep, ...) are available and can be individually muted/unmuted. The only problem is, that muting Master also mutes Headphone + PCM (the mixer controls switch to "MM" in alsamixer!), but unmuting Master does not unmute Headphone + PCM (they stay at "MM" in alsamixer, while Master moves to "OO" again). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1254884 Title: Pulseaudio: incoherent muting of GStreamer channels (mutes master, headphone and speaker, but unmutes only master) Status in PulseAudio sound server: Unknown Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “xfce4-volumed” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: with certain audio hardware (those where alsamixer shows separate "headphone" and "speaker" channels) pressing of the mute button on laptop keyboards causes mute of all three channels: master, headphone and speaker. unfortunately, pressing the button again to unmute (or deselecting mute in the xfce audio mixer panel applet) unmutes only the master channel, leaving headphone and speaker muted. there is no other way than opening alsamixer in a terminal (or open mixer controls from the applet) and manually clicking the two remaining channels to unmute.
