This week I got updates for several packages apparently related with
sound management, as well as a new kernel. After update and reboot, the
headphones jack started to work again. Connection/disconnection was
correctly managed in PulseAudio, and audio quality was very good.

However, like in the previous cases, as soon as I plugged in both the
headphones jack and the mic jack I got a peak of noise in my headset,
and everything stopped working again. Even connecting the headphones
only

Thus, maybe the key is some problem with *both the mic and headphones
jacks* connected at the same time.

Finally, my laptop support service provided this fix for turning off the
S/PDIF red light in the headphones connection:

mkdir -p ~/.config/autostart
tee -a ~/.config/autostart/disable_optical_led.desktop
Then, reboot.

Nevertheless, I have not tested this yet, just in case that for some
reason it may disconnect the complete headphones jack, preventing me to
test any solution for this problem.
