[RESOLVED] No sound when plugged in

Post by yurai »

I'm new to Linux in general so please bear with me here, but I'm having issues on my laptop when anything (headphones, speakers, etc.) is plugged into line out. My sound works fine when nothing is plugged in, but I hear nothing when I do have something plugged in. I've checked alsamixer and set all the values to max, but it still doesn't work. I can confirm that there's no issue with the actual port or headphones since I am dual booted with Windows 8 and I do hear sound in W8. Can anyone please help me troubleshoot this issue?

Edit: Using Mint 14 Cinnamon x64.

Open the terminal and type in "aplay -l" <--that is an L, but lowercase
Paste the output here.
