I had a similar problem, though when I plugged my headphones in, sound would play out of both them and the speakers.
Wasn't present in Ubuntu before 12.04 but seems fixed in the beta for 12.10. I can't find any trace of the problem. Can you confirm if you have this issue on a live USB of the 12.10 beta? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1038660 Title: Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't switch sound to headphones when I plug them into my computer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1038660/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
