Audio jack not detecting plugged in headphones [LINK] #434

Open mustuhfa opened 6 years ago

mustuhfa commented 6 years ago

Hi

Im using Gallium OS (4.8.17-galliumos) on a 2013 Chromebook pixel (Link) and when I plug in the headphones, the audio does not get routed and still plays externally through the speakers. I have seen similar issues and tried installing acpid but no go, still the same problem. Looking at pulseaudio (pulseaudio 8.0), it says the headphones are plugged in.

Any help would be appreciated.

Small update, going into alsamixer and unmuting HP/Speaker suddenly routes the audio through the headphone jack

I installed QasMixer and that detects the headphone when I go to device selection and select HP/speaker autodetect. I have to select it every boot, but I usually don't reboot.

Same Pixel you have.

I have the same problem on an Acer R11 Chromebook. I can manually route the sound to go via the headphones by opening up the volume control, selecting the Output Devices tab, and in the Advanced settings selecting the Port as headphones. However, the headphones are not detected when they are plugged in, nor is their absence detected when they are unplugged.

Are you using pulseaudio ?

Alderny commented 6 years ago

Yes, I am using pulseaudio. That seems to be what is packaged with GalliumOS.

@mustuhfa thank you so much, currently listening to music via a pair of headphones on my LINK for the first time in well over a year

@Alderny On Braswell at least, you should be able to enable auto-switching by installing acpid. The handler scripts are in place, but the package is not included by default. (Tested on CYAN)

@all: I don't know if a similar solution would work for LINK. If the events fire, the scripts can be added to handle them. I don't have access to hardware to test.

@reynhout I'd be glad to help test it out

from reddit as a note: ` Install Qasmixer with: sudo apt-get install qasmixer

Run it: qasmixer

Top left of the GUI go to: View> Show Device Selection

Then in the Mixer Device panel in the top right scroll down to sysdefault.

In the bottom left click in the box for HP/Speaker Auto Detect

Hope that helps someone out. Thanks.
