    Headphones do not mute speakers

    Hi All

    I recently purchased a Toshiba Qosmio x500 and installed Fedora 12. I've got all the hardware working.

    The only real difficulty that I can see is that when I plug my headphones into the headhphone jack the speakers are not muted. Every mixer application that I can run shows very minimalistic options; 4 at best. In kmixer the options shown are: Master, PCM, Mic, Mic1

    The information shown below seems to indicate that Fedora seems to have located some kind of Modem (Please Note the info about mixers on the bottom indicates it found something from conexant). And because of the order of things, It would seem that this device has taken precedence.

    Any help to properly configure my sound system would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in Advance

    Eli

    To automatically do it I don't know how to do it although I have a few ideas.

    Anyway you can configure your system using pulseaudio installing the pavucontrol

    If you have Intel sound try this:
    create the file:
    "/etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf"
    with the line:
    "options snd-hda-intel model=toshiba"

    Thanks all for your help.

    After further digging I found a bug report at:

    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=537986

    It turns out that the card was not fully supported in the Fedora repository .... yet .... . After a manual installation of the latest drivers from ALSA everything worked OK.
