Sorry, let me clarify. The jack cannot tell the difference between headphones and speakers. I'm just saying that they should not be treated the same, because headphones and externally powered speakers should have different output levels, impedance etc, for optimal quality. So, in theory we should have one button for headphones and one button for speakers, but because we currently do not support the line out mode at driver level (which is the optimal one for externally powered devices), I think it's better to leave speakers completely for now. -- David Henningsson, Canonical Ltd. https://launchpad.net/~diwic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1239605 Title: Combo audio jack support ("what did you plug in?"-dialog) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1239605/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
