Sound does not work until changed to Speakers. Setting holds through suspend but not a reboot. On each cold boot, setting reverts to Headphones. I expect a setting of Speakers to hold through a reboot, so my system will have working sound on boot-up. $ cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=12.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=precise DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS" Upgraded from 11.10. $ apt-cache policy gnome-settings-daemon gnome-settings-daemon: Installed: 3.4.2-0ubuntu0.5 Candidate: 3.4.2-0ubuntu0.5 Version table: *** 3.4.2-0ubuntu0.5 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.4.1-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1085552/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
