Creative Soundblaster AE-7 Headphones Issue

[Emre Fidan]

Hi There,

Headphones connected to Creative Soundblaster AE-7 are normally
auto-detected on alsamixer, but sink shows the headphone port as not
available.

alsamixer can change speakers to headphones and vice-versa, however, the
audio silences on the headphones after a couple of seconds unless you keep
system sound settings/easyeffects/pavucontol opened or minimized.

acpi_listen reports Line-In plugged/unplugged instead of headphones, trying
to reassign the with hdajackretask does the sensing (acpi_listen shows
headphones plugged/unplugged), however, no sound from headphones this time
at all.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
