By popular demands, I add the functionality to mute / unmute the line-out jacks per the headphone plug / unplug. For achieving this and keeping the compatibility with the old behavior, the new mixer enum "Auto-Mute Mode" is added. With this, user can control the auto-mute behavior either disabled, speaker-only or lineout+speaker.
Hi Takashi,
Great to see these improvements! I have a question about this patch:
There are three ways we can auto-mute:
Headphones might mute Internal Speakers. Headphones might mute Line out. Line out might mute Internal Speakers.
Are we considering the third option here or is that still unsupported?
Also, it might be slightly confusing for the end-user to have options that are irrelevant, e g if there are no internal speakers (or line-out for that matter), that option will still show up. Right?
