No Output On Sound Jack

Hi!

I have just installed openSUSE and things work very nicely, including sound via laptopspeakers, but:
As soon as I plug anything into the headphone jack there is no more sound (especially not in whatever device I plug in)

This problem appears with openSUSE10.3, with an up-to-date installlation of Ubuntu, but NOT with Windows.

System: ASUS Notebook, AMD Turion64-X2, geForce Go 6100 includiung Sound(MPC51), openSUSE 10.3.

Thanks! Felix

This may (or may not) be easily fixable. I need more information that this. Please, can you run the two diagnostic scripts from the audio troubleshooting guide and post the output URLs (that those scripts will provide) here? http://en.opensuse.org/AudioTroubleshootin...led_information

In addition to the script output URLs, please also provide the output of:
a. <span style="font-family:Courier New">cat /etc/modprobe.d/sound</span>

Based upon that, I can try provide a recommendation.

Alternatively, you could try to follow the step-3, 4 and 5 of the audio troubleshooting guide yourself, to see if you can get this functionality to work.

Hi!

thanks! Felix

do you have the headphones controls in kmix?

i had a similar problem with one of my laptops and with both my laptops in 10.2, the way i solved for both was recompiling alsa from source. you dont need to remove the current, just go to alsa website and follow the instructions for your card. Worth a try, worst case you can always reinstall easily alsa from yast

Hi mutlu,

Congratulations and welcome .

With all respect to previous posts, please try this first before playing with installation, software or wahatever... if it didnt work then you can try the other solutions mentioned previously.

I have installed the 10.3 few days ago... and I had the same problem, surprisingly it seems to me that kmixer by default does not have everything activated.
What i did was so simple.
1. got to Kmix ( the loudspeaker icon on the tool bar below, if you are using KDE)
2. right click, and select "show mixer window"
3. if you see a dark green colour "led" below the headphone icon, it means it is disabled, click it to change to light green (on)
4. adjust the volume.
5. same applies for input and output devices.

Does this work for you?

Thanks. I see your Asus has an ALC660 hardware codec, and you have alsa version 1.0.14 installed, on a 64-bit openSUSE with the latest 10.3 kernel.

I did a search under the alsa web site, and I did not notice anything new for your ALC660 in either alsa-1.0.15 nor 1.0.16.

So I recommend you start by trying an update to your /etc/modprobe.d/sound file. Please change that file to:

options snd-hda-intel enable=1 index=0 model=asus
# wRyD.U9KaT8xP2e4:MCP51 High Definition Audio
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel

save the change, and then restart your alsa in an xterm/konsole with root permissions by typing: <span style="font-family:Courier New"> rcalsasound restart</span>

Then test your sound jack.

In addition to asus, asus-laptop, 3stack-660, other options you can try are 3stack, 3stack-dig, 6stack-dig, uniwill-m31, toshiba.

If that, and the above suggestions don't work, prior to trying G0NZ0's compile from source option, you could try updating with the lastest alsa 1.0.16 rpms.

Thanks!! Setting the model to "asus" or "asus-laptop" helped Now I can hear things! Great!
