Yeah, notice the Master in the last command. I'm trying to get the speakers to work while the headphones are muted in this case, and it takes some experimenting. By the way, the speakers are most likely the Line column in alsamixer. When we get there, the command will be amixer set Line toggle My t...

Okay, follow up with amixer set Master toggle EDIT: Typed aplay by mistake, corrected now. in 2 CLIs: amixer set Headphone toggle Simple mixer control 'Headphone',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 87 Mono: Front Left: Playback 87 [100%]...

Don't worry about the missing inxi bits. I was just trying to get an overall feel of what we were dealing with here. I've seen various posts about the -D pulse flag on the amixer command, and don't understand why yours claims no Headphone simple mixer control when it's clearly there in your amixer ...

Okay, let's get some specifics. Paste the output of the following terminal commands: inxi -Fxz , aplay -l and amixer Yessir. TY for helping :) The extra inxi stuff I'll put in a DM if you want it. Don't want everything (like NICs/Drives) out on the web. >inxi -Fxz System: Host: hostname Kernel: 4.1...

Okay, it appears pulseaudio is running now.

What happens if you enter amixer -D pulse set Headphone toggle? That should toggle mute; i.e. if it's muted, it unmutes, and vice versa.

Code: Select all

user@host:~$ amixer -D pulse set Headphone toggle
amixer: Unable to find simple control 'Headphone',0

Yikes! What software were you using to listen to sound? Some are very capable of working without pulseaudio, but some aren't. What happens in the terminal when you run pulseaudio --start ? Software to listen to sound? I'm just opening up the applet on the bottom-left that is a sound icon to adjust ...

Also, it's possible you might want to use amixer -D pulse set whatever here

Pulse doesn't seem to be running

#>pacmd
No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon.

I'm VERY new with Mint btw :\

EDIT:
Looks like setting a level to 0% works find

#>amixer set Headphone 0%

Bah, looks like that doesn't work after all. It still messes with the master volum

Hello. I'm trying to make it as automatic as possible for a non nix user. I can't seem to script this because when I set the headphones to mute, it turns off speakers too. #>amixer set Headphone mute Mutes the master EDIT: Looks like setting a level to 0% works find :D #>amixer set Headphone 0%

FIX: pavucontrol Hello all. I would like to NOT have to yank my headphones out of the ports every time I want to use my speakers. I can't seem to figure it out in Cinnamon Mint. Headphones are analog 2.5 rca front. Speakers are on 2.5 rca back. Can anyone give me some info? Seems this doesn't use pu...
