A rather borderline question/observation: When plugging in headphone and the jack is configured as headphone built-in speaker gets muted (seems reasonable default, hardware triggered). Is it possible to have that auto-muting reported in mixer and possibly overridden via mixer if wanted (possibly via mute-speaker-if-headphone-plugged option)?
You can turn off the auto-mute behavior via "Auto-Mute Mode" mixer enum. The Headphone and Speaker volume/mute can be still controlled manually. And the jack status can be delivered/read via "Headphone Jack" control.
Oh, I mis-understood the "Auto-Mute Mode" mixer enum as idle-related thing. Trying it out, it works :)
I've not found the "Headphone Jack" control status within alsamixer though I found it using amixer. If alsamixer does not provide the information it would be a nice feature to add reporting state of such controls. If the information is already available I have not found it.
Thanks for the pointers and your support!
