You are right - when auto-mute is disabled sound goes via both speakers and headphones when they are plugged. I did not know the function of auto-mute. However, the "Speaker" and "Headphone" controls still do influence both outputs, and "Speaker" can only be muted - there is no volume control available. So, in my opinion, they should either be merged altogether, or switched back to the way they work in 2.6.38.8-32.fc15.x86_64, that is setting the volume of speakers and headphones independently. > >> The converse might be true though - if you >> select "analog headphones" in pavucontrols the speakers go silent. > > This is what PA does intentionally, independently from the driver > auto-mute behavior.
