I stated some things incorrectly, above. Here are the corrected
statements of symptoms, for my Optiplex 980:

When I run "hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x21 0x701 0", front headphone jack
works but external speakers emit no sound even if headphones are NOT
plugged in. This is actually acceptable in my case because the machine
is a work machine and the only way I want to listen to sound is with
headphones, in order not to bother coworkers. But it may not be
acceptable in general.

If I then run "hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x1b 0x701 0", BOTH headphones
AND speakers work, even if headphones ARE plugged in. This is
unacceptable for my aforementioned situation in a work environment,
because I would want to be able to mute the speakers simply by plugging
headphones into the front.
