Actually, there are two pins for the (black) headphone jack, which BTW
has a headset icon next to it. Maybe some kind of headset quirk is
needed, or maybe one of the jacks should be gated by the other one?

I already have the latest BIOS version.

I've been playing around with them, but I don't really know what I'm
doing, and I haven't had much luck yet.


Something else I've noticed in the meantime: With inv_jack_detect
enabled, I can get sound from the speakers by choosing them for output
in the GNOME sound preferences. If I choose "Analog Output - Built-in
Audio" there, the sound comes out of the connected headphones.
