Public bug reported:
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu oneiric (development branch)
Release: 11.10
pulseaudio 1:1.0-0ubuntu1
PROBLEM: With oneiric the number of input and output sound connectors is
reduced.
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)
