the built-in speakers of my HP ProBook 455 G2 are not working by default. I'm attaching the output of alsa-info.sh.
Is this a regression from earlier kernels?
No, it's the same with Debian's default 3.16 kernel.
In pavucontrol, the speakers appear as "Speakers (unavailable)", and in the GNOME sound settings they don't appear at all.
In the meantime, I've noticed that those symptoms are due to the headphone jack being incorrectly detected as connected. And indeed, on a different laptop I get all the same symptoms while headphones are plugged in.
So, it occurred to me to try 'the other OS' on this laptop, and the behaviour there is weird as well: No sound from the speakers even while nothing's plugged into the headphone jack. When I plug in headphones, there's a notification: "Something was just unplugged from your headphone jack" (!), then sound works as expected through the headphones. When I unplug them again, there's a notification: "Something was just plugged into your headphone jack".
In Linux, I haven't seen any visible change when plugging in or out the headphones.
Do you think the hardware is defective? Any possible workarounds for the incorrect headphone jack detection?
