I plugged a cable into the "Headphone" jack and poked the other end with my finger. I heard the telltale buzz in the headphones which leads me to suspect that the "Headphone" jack is in fact a Line-in.
Since alsamixer reports this jack as a Headphone jack as well, I suspect that this is not a bug in pavucontrol nor pulseaudio after all, but in alsa. I will reassign it. _______________________________________________ pkg-pulseaudio-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-pulseaudio-devel
