I have my speakers plugged in to the Line Out jack. When I plug my headphones into the front headphone jack, the speakers are muted and sound is played in my headphones, as expected. However, when I open up pavucontrol
and manually select to send sound to Line Out (which is listed as unplugged) it mutes the headphones (as expected) but does NOT play audio out the speakers.
I've tried many different permutations of pactl
and pacmd
, with set-sink-port
and other commands, and every time, either nothing changes, or both the speakers and headphones are silent, as they are when I try to do it with pavucontrol
.
TL;DR; I want to be able to switch between headphones and speakers while both are plugged in, but the speakers are ALWAYS silent when my headphones are plugged in.
I'm running up-to-date Fedora 23 with the KDE 5 desktop.
