Headphones showing working, but no sound at all

[mhupp]

I have checked alsamixer and PulseAudio settings, but still cannot get any sound out of headphone jack…when I look at PulseAudio setting, is see sound volume theoretically going to headphones, but hear nothing.

Any works of advice here…I picked HDA Intel PCH card in the AlsaMixer…my chipset is Cirrus Logic CS4206.

Thanks,

Mark

You may try some force:

sudo alsa force-reload

If this does not resolve, you could reinstall alsa and pulseaudio:

sudo apt-get remove --purge alsa-base

sudo apt-get remove --purge pulseaudio

sudo apt-get install alsa-base

sudo apt-get install pulseaudio

Then

sudo alsa force-reload
