Audio comes out of both headphone and speaker at the same time.. Ubuntu 12.04LTS [closed]
- by pst007x
I have the same issue on an Aspire.
Ubuntu 12.04LTS 64bit
realtek audio sound chip onboard
If I plug in a headset, audio does not switch from internal speaker to headset, instead plays out of both at the same time.
I have looked at the alsamixer setting, all on.
I installed gnome-alsamixer, and I noticed headphone was ticked, if I untick the main audio mutes, and the headphone no longer works. Headset only works with internal speaker.
Audio works fine on my other desktop and laptop running this release
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)

The alsa-base.conf does not exist
Tried this:
sudo apt-get remove --purge alsa-base
sudo apt-get remove --purge pulseaudio
sudo apt-get install alsa-base
sudo apt-get install pulseaudio
sudo alsa force-reload
Then:
sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio
sudo apt-get install pulseaudio gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio indicator-sound
Tred this.
sudo gedit
Then open terminal:
sudo /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
At the end of the file add a new line:
options snd-hda-intel model=generic
Save and then reboot
But alsa-base.conf does not exist
