So, if you go to Sound Settings --> Output --> Connector Only "Analog speakers" is there. In natty there was also "Line output" (or something similar) Currently pulseaudio sends sound to BOTH speakers AND line. It is not possible to send just to one. This is obviously very inconvenient (if you have headphones, there is no way to stop the internal speakers). This seems to be somewhat similar to bug #844936 . A similar problem seems to happen on input Sound Settings --> Input --> Connector There is only "Internal Microphone", no "Line in" any more. I did not test the Input part, but the pattern seems the same. I think that this has the potential to be serious as it makes the sound system useless e,g, in an office where you need to shut down the speakers and want to have headphones. $lspci |grep Audio 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 05) 01:00.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1) This is on a HP Pavilion dv8-1080ea (standard config, no add ons) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/868536/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
