Hello Tmerriam, I had the same problem on a Toshiba A135. That's how I got to this bug. After doing some research I've decided to try a simple move which solved the non-working front headphones and also allow them to cancel the speakers once there was something plugged in.
You can do it visually or through the command line, I will explain both. Visual way: Click on System - Administration - Synaptic search for 'backports' without the quotes. You will find a list of different packages to install. Search for 'linux-backports-modules-2.6.28-11-generic' which is, according to your previous post, the kernel you are using and select it. If you have updated it, select the kernel number you are running. Click on Apply and reboot. It should work on your next login. Command line way: Open a terminal and write: apt-get install linux-backports-modules-`uname -r` Reboot and it should be working fine. Hope it helps!
