Headphone and Speaker work at the same time

[theoneghost]

I have a Dell Inspiron 640m. I have Bianca installed, and When I plug in my headphones, the speakers stay on, and continue to play. This is a large problem for me, and I would appreciate help on this very much.

can't you change the volume for each under volume control?

I can't, but I got it fixed after sound settings, then reboot.

hello.
can you post what you've done? I have the same problem, and haven't yet solved the problem.

thanks

I didn't do anything. I just went to look at the sound settings, canceled out of the window, then yelled a little and rebooted. It worked after that.

Hi there,

If it is running an intel card similar to the HP you could have problems. Try installing the most recent release candidate alsa driver from the alsa sound website.

My HP had similar issues and I have a how to on these pages that points to another site that helped me.

Who knows, installing the most recent driver might fix your problem.

Cheers
John
