Bug#600294: Need to turn off 'Headphone Jack Sense' and 'Line Jack Sense'
Package: alsa-utils Version: 1.0.23-2 Severity: wishlist Five years on, bug 297343 (archived, so I couldn't reply to it) takes me out for a few frustrating hours. I was playing with mixer levels to get my mic capture working and turned on Headphone Jack Sense, no doubt thinking that turning things on could hardly hurt. Googling did not get me the solution; I just checked the ALSA faq and it's there, but this did not come up in my searches. I looked at the Debian fix, and it seems that I could have run /etc/init.d/alsa reset to get my sound working again. That's great, thought it's a little obscure and I never found it documented. What I tried was alsactl init, but this didn't do it. It would be have been better for me if this fix could have been made in alsactl init. Any chance for some of the Debian sanity checks to be ported to alsactl init? Should I file an upstream bug about this?

I looked at the Debian fix, Which Debian fix? and it seems that I could have run /etc/init.d/alsa reset to get my sound working again. reset wqas never an option of the alsa script. Read /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/changelog.Debian.gz and /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/NEWS.Debian.gz. The init script resides in /usr/sbin/alsa since 1.0.15-1 That's great, thought it's a little obscure and I never found it documented. What did you never found? What I tried was alsactl init, but this didn't do it. It would be have been better for me if this fix could have been made in alsactl init. Any chance for some of the Debian sanity checks to be ported to alsactl init? Should I file an upstream bug about this? Sorry, but what or where is the bug? What do you want? Which Debian sanity checks do you mean? Please point out your bug, though.

Googling did not get me the solution; I just checked the ALSA faq and it's there, but this did not come up in my searches. ??? Sorry for the confusion. I'm referring to Debian bug 297343, http://bugs.debian.org/297343. Does it make sense now? and it seems that I could have run /etc/init.d/alsa reset to get my sound working again. reset wqas never an option of the alsa script. Sorry, I meant /etc/init.d/alsa-utils That's great, thought it's a little obscure and I never found it documented. What did you never found? /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset. I've never seen an init script with a reset command, so I didn't think to look there. Sorry, but what or where is the bug? What do you want? Which Debian sanity checks do you mean? I mean the sanify_levels_on_card function in /etc/init.d/alsa-utils. Andrew -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
