[Bug 1257956] Re: Headphones stopped working after use of Audacity. They are detected, but no sound is produced.
Ran into this issue with Audacity 2.2.1 on Ubuntu 18.04. Restarting doesn't fix it. Headphones were detected but didn't work. Steps to Fix: * Open Audacity. Set source to "default: internal mic: 0" * Close Audacity * Open Audacity again.

[Bug 1257956] Re: Headphones stopped working after use of Audacity. They are detected, but no sound is produced.
I just installed Audacity to make a quick edit on an a MP3 file. I installed 2.1.2 from the default Linux Mint repo, opened Audacity and selected my file. It played over my headphones just fine. I closed Audacity, then immediately opened it again to select a different file to edit. As Audacity opened I heard an audible 'click' over my headphones. I could no longer hear anything over my headphones whether in Audacity or via browser/youtube or other media player. I discovered an AskUbuntu question with the same problem. An answer there said that we just needed to open Audacity and select Internal Mic:0. Tried that, and presto had audio over my headphones again. Another answer on the same question recommended upgrading from 2.1.2 to the current (then) version of 2.2.0 to get around the bug in the future. I then uninstalled 2.1.2, and installed 2.2.2 from the ubuntuhandbook repo. Opened Audacity 2.2.2, only to discover that I now have no headphone volume again, and this time changing the output to Internal Mic:0 did not work. In fact, I cannot get headphone output on any of the 10 output options. Nothing plays over headphones now, not youtube/browser, not files in VLC. Installing Audacity has literally broken my laptops ability to listen to music over headphones. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1257956 Title: Headphones stopped working after use of Audacity.

I also ran into this issue yesterday on a Dell XPS13. It is nothing Audacity specific and you can easily trigger this yourself by just running 'amixer -c 0 set "Headphone Mic" cap' or starting alsamixer, switching to the capture devices and activating the "Headphone Mic" by pressing Space on it. Similarly, you can get your headphone sound back by instead capturing from the internal mic. All in all, there is no bug anywhere. It's just that Audacity handles mics in a bad (though not buggy) manner. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1257956 Title: Headphones stopped working after use of Audacity.

[Bug 1257956] Re: Headphones stopped working after use of Audacity. They are detected, but no sound is produced.
I just ran headlong into this same issue on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS using Audacity 2.1.2 on my Dell XPS15. When inserting a jack, I get a dialogue box asking whether I have a headphone, headset, or mic inserted (apparently an external amp with speakers should be considered 'headphones', but that's a different issue). It all works fine, until I start audacity. Also, when closing audacity, it still doesn't work. The same workaround still works: switch the mic source to something else but the headphone. Which IMHO isn't a fix, it is a cludgy, confusing workaround. Judging by the dialogue box, this is really more of an Audacity issue, and not so much alsa-driver, but I thought to mention it here as well. $ dpkg -l audacity ii audacity 2.1.2-1 amd64fast, cross-platform audio editor $ uname -a Linux AF-XPS-15-9550 4.4.0-72-generic #93-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 31 14:07:41 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1257956 Title: Headphones stopped working after use of Audacity.

Dear all, thanks to Ramond's comments, I went into Audacity and changed the microphone source in the drop-down menu from sysdefault: Headphone Mic:0 to sysdefault: Internal Mic:0 and it fixed it. I can now use my headphones, even when I restard Audacity. We should still fix that because it is very confusing to the user.

Hi Raymond Thank you for looking into this. It is true that my Asus F201E has only one jack port for mic + headphones. However, I am no developer and I find it hard to understand. - What can average users do to momentarily fix the problem? - What should we do to get the issue fixed? Is the problem specific to ALSA? If so, has it been reported upstream? - Was the git commit the one that broke it, or the one that is trying to fix it?

[Bug 1257956] Re: Headphones stopped working after use of Audacity. They are detected, but no sound is produced.
I have the exact same problem. I was not sure what it came from at the beginning but today it was clearly Audacity that stops my headphone port from working. I was listening to music before through the same headphones, with different apps. As soon as I opened the same sound with Audacity, my headphone port stopped working whereas I can unplug them and use my laptop speakers. After that, even out of Audacity, I can not use my headphones with the apps that worked before then. I only hear little breathing sounds every time a sound/song is supposed to start, or when the sound/song is supposed to finish and the app releases the sound system. It takes several reboots before it eventually start working again, sometimes after a few days. I have no idea what happens but it is an extremely disrupting problem as I can not make any music without good quality headphones. I am using Ubuntu 13.10 64bits with Audacity 2.0.5 Please let me know if I can give you something else to help fix this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1257956 Title: Headphones stopped working after use of Audacity.
