I have some problem with my sound settings. I only get sound through the internal speakers of my notebook, not through the headset.Does anyone know how I can fix this?My notebook is an Asus K52f with Ubuntu 10.10.
so my problem is that i can't disable the speakers on my laptop when i plug in my headphones. in other words, i get sound from both the headphones and the speakers, when the expected behavior is to disable the speakers when headphones are plugged in, and enable the speakers when headphones are unplugged..
i've been looking around the forum and google, and i found a way to adjust the speaker and headphone volume manually in alsamixer. To adjust the headphone volume on alsamixer, i can raise or lower volume using the "Front" volume bar. To adjust the speaker volume, i raise or lower volume on the "Speaker" volume bar.
so, it's cool to know that i can do this manually, but i'm sure there's an option i can put in alsa-base.conf to automate this. i just can't seem to find that option...
anyway, i'm using Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit...and here's my alsa-base.conf file
I currently have my desktop setup with two displays, one of them being my living room tv that I run Boxee on. My problem is that all the audio runs through the same speakers preventing me from listening to music or gaming at the same time as when Boxee is in use.
I would like to know if it's possible to split the audio so that an application of my choosing only outputs sound through my headphones. I was thinking it would be possible with some of the controls in pulse, but if it is I cannot figure it out.
I was trying to fix my audio, I had it coming out of my headphones and speakers at the same time. I was told to run this script to try to fix the problem but it only made it worse. I've attached screen shots showing that I now have no hardware showing.
This is a Lenovo L512 laptop with Intel HD Audio (Realtek ALC269 / Intel G45 DEVIBX) which was recently upgraded to Squeeze. I've been having trouble using the headphones on this machine, as the speakers continued to play while the headphones were connected. I normally use KDE, and the available mixer only offers one channel. I thought I might be able to manually silence the speakers by using the command line tool alsamixer. Unfortunately, alsamixer has a channel for the headphones, but it doesn't do anything, only master volume is controllable. By luck I decided to play around with Gnome today and to my great surprise, System -> Preferences -> Sound offers complete control over all functions of the audio hardware. Does anyone know how I could get these features working under KDE?
I have openSUSE 11.4 KDE version (64-bit) on a desktop PC. My sound card is ASUS Xonar DX 7.1 (PCI-E). I am brand-new to the Linux experience. I get audio out to my speakers which are connected to the jacks of the rear I/O panel of my PC. I do not however get audio out to my headphones which are connected to the jack in the front panel. I know that the headphones work fine because they do so when I boot up in Windows XP. Here is what I discovered so far: KMix does not show that I have a front panel audio channel. But when I run AlsaMixer it does show that I have such channel and, upon manually turning the volume on, I do have sound out to the headphones.
Therefore, I deduct that I have some sort of configuration problem with KMix and would like to fix it as I prefer to use the GUI interface instead of the AlsaMixer one. It's just a matter of preference! I would like to troubleshoot things using the Audio Troubleshooting guide (SDB:Audio troubleshooting - openSUSE) but I notice that openSUSE's version 11.4 is not mentioned in it. Should I follow the instructions for version 11.3 or wait for an updated guide?
I've recently installed 11.4 with KDE SC on my Eee PC 1015 PED netbook. I've had absolutely no problems with it, but after a reboot the speakers have stopped playing, I can only hear audio via headphones. I tried many settings in systemsettings and YAST, but nothing helps. Here's all the info I need to provide, according to the sticky thread:
I have a lenovo g555 laptop, about a week old with lucid installed, and whenever i try to play things through the headphones, they come through the speakers as well. I've tried tinkering around in alsa, but the ony two levels are Master and PCM, which seem to adjust both headphones and speakers at once. My audio codec is "Conexant ID 5069"
With Fedora 15 64 bits, all updates installed, i have no audio with headphones. the audio works fine with laptop speakers, but when headphones jack is inserted the audio continued from the laptop speakers and no from headphones. with older fedora and ubuntu editions there is no problem with headphones audio output.
this is a gateway nv53 laptop.
In ubuntu 11.04 I solved the problem adding two lines in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf: options snd_hda_intel model=laptop options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1 enable=yes
I'm running a Dell inspiron 1501 laptop with a sigmatel stac 9200 sound chipset.
When I had ubuntu 9.04, I had sound no problem and when I upgraded to 9.10 I had sound for a little bit. Now the only way I get sound off my laptop is by plugging in my headphones.
I've tried trouble shooting this a number of ways using the following links as the latest:
I want to make the audio available only on my headset and to turn the laptop speakers off. In windows, when i plug in the headphones, the speakers automatically turn off and audio is output only on the heads but that's not the case with slackware. I was looking in alsamixer and the audio and video configuration, but no success.
The problem is, when I connect the headphones to the from panel audio jack, only right headphone works. Left one has no sound. But if I connect same to the main jack at the back of the machine, everything works fine. Both headphones have sound.
I have installed Fedora 13 on my laptop, but there is something wrong with the sound。It just comes from both the computer and the headphone. I have installed alsa, you can see as follows:
when my headphones are plugged into my computer, the sound comes from both the speakers AND the headphones. I just want the sound from the headphones if they are plugged in.
I'm having an issue with my computer and the headphones. When I plug in the headphones into the headphone jack, the sound plays through the headphones but it also plays through the speakers as well at the same time. I've attempted to play around with the sound settings to see if I can get this issue resolved but I have not been able too. Computer specifications are in my signature.
I want to listen to this audio file: [URL] but my real player 11.0.0.4028 gold desn play it, it says that there is a codec 28_8 missing, I go to relaplayer page, download the last release available for linux systems, but the message is the same : audio codec missing and doesn't play the audio.
I havev tried to play the audio with smplayer (not luck), vlc can play the audio but the pause button doesn't work so I have to listen the entire audio all the time I stop it playing. Is there any audio player capable od reproducing in the proper way this audio in ubuntu? No one of my video players totem, smplayer, realplayer or vlc are capable of playing this video: [URL]
I have installed the Ubuntu 10.04 on a HP Pavilion dv3-2150ep laptop and I can't get sound on my headphones when I plug them. Besides the laptop speakers don't shutdown either - like it happened with the same OS on my Toshiba Tecra M4."aplay -l" lists my card properly and nothing is muted on "alsamixer". It states that my card is a HDA Intel with chipset Nvidia MCP78 HDMI.
The laptops speakers work fine (in fact they're clearer and stronger than ever), but I can't use audio equipment that I plug into the audio jack (headphones, speakers, ect.).
I checked System/Sound, looked into the Output tab, and found that there are two devices for sound output displayed: Internal Audio Digital Stereo (HDMI, cause my laptop has an HDMI port), and Internal Audio Analog Speaker (default sound output). No "Headphones" or "3.5mm Jack" or something like that. Even when I have something plugged in the jack.
So when I plug in my headphones, no sound comes from them, and the laptop speakers are still playing. It's like Ubuntu doesn't detect anything plugged into the audio jack at all.
I just bought a pair of Samsung SBH500 headphones and a USB Bluetooth dongle. I was able to connect my headphones with no problems but I wanted to set them up to play music. I found this website: [URL]. I got to this command:
Code: $ sudo hciconfig hci0 voice 0x0060
and got this error message
Code: Can't write voice setting on hci0: Connection timed out (110)
My Compaq Presario B1800 is running 9.10, and the volume for the speakers is fine. When I plug in my earphones, I think the soundcard supplies the same power to the earphones which is OK quietest of the quietest settings, but way to loud even on the second notch.
I use Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex. I have a Realtek HD Audio Sound Card. All works well, but i dont get any sound, when i insert an earphone/headphone into the audio jack. The speakers are working though. I have an Acer aspire 5542g laptop, with ADM Turion dual core, 3gb ram, ati mobility radeon GPU.
I have Ubuntu 9.10. Clean install. I have a cheap headset but can't get sound to come thru the headset. The mic works, but sound only comes from main speakers.
I do not have a HP, SONY or anything like that. I bought my pc barebones and built myself. So there doesn't seem to be any easy fix for my pc. Here are the specs:
ASUS A6000 no headphones ASUS A6000 no headphones using ubuntu 10.4 and after ALSA upgrade script was run.
At first had no sound and then ran the ALSA upgrade script found here. [URL]
Now have sound but no headphones.
Also, when attempting to adjust outputs I used the ALSAmixer gui application and seem to have misconfigured the display somehow. I now only show one item at a time on the panel and none of the other controls show up. I can still select them...one at a time. There is no user manual for this application, the older versions have a manual but it does not apply to the new gui version of the app.
Audo is working fine through the Internal laptop speakers. when i plug in my headphones, nothing happens, the audio continues to play through the speakers, and nothing comes from the headphones. ive tried changing up things in sound preferences and alsa-mixer, but nothing seems to be working.
Im 100% sure the head phone jack isn't broken, and the headphones aren't broken (they both work in windows just fine.) Im running 10.04, on an amd-64x HP-dv3.
After updating my kernel my sound stopped working. I followed the sound problems guide in the sticky thread at the top of this forum and I've now got it to the point where I get sound through the headphones but not through the laptop speakers. Here is my sound info (output from alsa-info.sh thingy). I've added various lines to the end of my alsa-base.conf but no luck.
