I have been playing with Independent HP feature and while I can get it
to work in aplay and mplayer, it does not seem to work on vlc and Skype. Both applications seem to have options for sending sound to HPs ("AD1989B Analog Front Speakers" or "AD1989B Analog (hw: 0,2)" - Skype only), but none of those options sends sound to the HPs. Any thoughts on this?
Because the driver should not allow user to change the independent headphone switch when there is any playing stream
The Independent HP switch is on before starting these apps (vlc and Skype).
Maybe it's because you set it beforehand? The previous mixer state is restored usually upon login or reboot.
