Mute speakers when headset is plugged in - leszek - 08-16-2017
Somehow when I plug in a headset sound is played through it but the speakers don't mute and still play sound still.
I like to have the behavior to mute the speakers if I plug in my headphones or headset.
I guess I need to enable some switch in alsamixer to make it work.

This is a known problem - I believe that anarsoul was looking into it sometime ago. So for now, you will need to manually mute speakers in alsamixer.

Hi Luke,
In case the issue has not fixed yet, I wrote a simple patch using acpi_listen to automatically mute/unmute when audio jack plugs in/out.

Let me know if you have any question.

Thank you, this is very usefull !
Below it showed that the range for 'headphone volume' is from 0-63, and for ' speaker volume' 0-31.
Code:
root@pinebook:/etc/acpi# amixer -c 1 sset 'headphone volume' 35
Simple mixer control 'headphone volume',0
Capabilities: volume volume-joined
Playback channels: Mono
Capture channels: Mono
Limits: 0 - 63
Mono: 35 [56%]
root@pinebook:/etc/acpi# amixer -c 1 sset 'speaker volume' 35
Simple mixer control 'speaker volume',0
Capabilities: volume volume-joined
Playback channels: Mono
Capture channels: Mono
Limits: 0 - 31
Mono: 31 [100%]On my PB I've changed the values as below. Further I had to add the -c 1 option for selecting the right card.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
case "$1" in
jack/headphone)
case "$3" in
plug)
amixer -c 1 sset 'speaker volume' 0
# amixer -D pulse sset Master 50% not working yet
amixer -c 1 sset 'headphone volume' 35
;;
unplug)
amixer -c 1 sset 'headphone volume' 0
# amixer -D pulse sset Master 50% not working yet
amixer -c 1 sset 'speaker volume' 31

esacp.s. I really recommend to NOT set 'headphone volume' to the maximum of 63, it will probably will be way to loud! (i tried till 51, too loud alread!
