Switching between Speakers and Headphones - DrewTechs - 07-20-2020
I have written a couple of simple scripts that can switch the speakers and headphones and thought I share it. Pretty straightforward though, but maybe it can be updated to be written in one script and can detect whether the auxiliary port is connected to an auxiliary cable or not.
headphones.sh
Code:
#!/bin/sh
amixer -c 0 set 'Headphone' unmute
amixer -c 0 set 'Line Out' mutespeakers.sh
Code:
#!/bin/sh
amixer -c 0 set 'Headphone' mute
amixer -c 0 set 'Line Out' unmuteRE: Switching between Speakers and Headphones - Athansor - 07-21-2020

nice! rate up!
RE: Switching between Speakers and Headphones - DrewTechs - 07-28-2020
I updated the script so that instead of having two separate scripts you can have just one.
audioswap.sh
Code:
#!/bin/sh
case "$1" in
-h|--headphones|headphones|aux)
echo "Disabling Speakers..."
amixer -c 0 set 'Line Out' mute
echo "Enabling Headphones..."
amixer -c 0 set 'Headphone' unmute
echo "Done."
;;
-s|--speakers|speakers)
echo "Disabling Headphones..."
amixer -c 0 set 'Headphone' mute
echo "Enabling Speakers..."
amixer -c 0 set 'Line Out' unmute
echo "Done."
;;
-?|*)
echo "Usage:"
echo "\tSpeakers: -h | --headphones | headphones | aux"
echo "\tHeadphones: -s | --speakers | speakers"
echo "\tHelp: -? | *"
;;

Is this something is going to be integrated in the different OS?

Absolutely fantastic!
RE: Switching between Speakers and Headphones - Athansor - 08-06-2020
So, @DrewTechs , is there any way to slap a button on that script and put it on the desktop (or main screen or whatever it is on the phone)? Sadly, I don't program, but it seems to me that small addition would make the OS's inability to recognize the headphones pretty negligible.
Except for when you're on the phone. ofono doesn't use alsa, I guess?

That's strange because I know the speakers and auxiliary ports both work but if you plug in headphones it doesn't automatically change the sound source to the auxiliary port.
