`amixer set Speaker unmute' makes no difference physically unplugging the headphone jack from the socket does, i.e. `amixer set Speaker (un)mute' does the right thing.
Could you give more details? The description is too concise and vague.
I have a script to toggles sound emission by the built-in speaker:
#!/bin/sh amixer get Speaker | grep -q "[on]" && onoff="mute" || onoff="unmute" amixer set Speaker $onoff echo "$onoff"
As we speak:
`--> atoggle Simple mixer control 'Speaker',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 127 Mono: Front Left: Playback 127 [100%] [0.00dB] [on] Front Right: Playback 127 [100%] [0.00dB] [on] unmute
This setting is ignored when (i.e. speaker is always silent) if the headphone jack is plugged in.
This used to work in prior kernels, I believe I've shared my bisection results with you in one of the earlier (personal) e-mails, if there's a better way to achieve the desired result (i.e. control sound emission by the speaker regardless of the headphone jack plug-status) I'll happily use that instead.
As mentioned, make sure that you disable auto-mute mode: amixer set "Auto-Mute Mode" "Disabled"
If you still have no speaker output even after that, give alsa-info.sh output with non-working state, and also the alsa-info.sh output from the working state on the earlier kernel.
