ok, so you have a CNL-H chipset and no digital mics, so the legacy
HDaudio driver is used (not SOF w/ the DSP enabled).

There's nothing at the driver level that would prevent the use of
independent outputs, such as built-in speakers and HDMI concurrently.
You can verify this assertion by opening different terminals and trying

speaker-test -Dhw:0,0 -c2 -r48000

speaker-test -Dhw:0,3 -c2 -r48000 (use 0,7 8 9 10 as needed, depending
on which device is tagged as connected to a valid HDMI output in the
mixer 'Jack' status)

I am not sure though how the Gnome settings would let you do this. This
seems like a user-space problem to me?
