I installed 1.0.15 from the website and had to add 'acer-aspire' as an
option inorder to get it to work. With 'acer' as the option the
speakers worked but the headphones didn't but 'acer-aspire' as the
option the speakers and headphones worked but the speakers did not mute
when headphones were plugged into the socket.

now it's working pretty okay.

Thanks for the help,
Conor
