No Sound to Headphones - Dell Studio 17 (FC 13)

Hello, I recently installed Fedora Core 13 (64 bit) on my Dell Studio 17 (Dual booted w/ Windows). I am fairly new to Linux and trying to learn as much as I can.

I was not able to get any sound to the speakers in my laptop when I first installed, so I used yum to update my system including the Kernel, and I was able to get sound to my speakers!

However I can not get any sound to my headphones (yes they do work). When I plug in my headphones to the jack the sound is cut from the laptop speakers, but no sound is audible from the headphones.

I have both Alsa and PulseAudio installed. Is this redundant/conflicting?

What is your default sound output device (in System->Preferences->Sound ; Output tab). Is it set to your speakers or your headphones?

I figured selecting both would be safest? There isn't any option which explicitly states 'headphones'.

What are the options? I have two options on my PC: Internal Analog Stereo and Logitech Headset Analog Stereo.

Look at Pulseaudio Volume Control, (yum install pavucontrol if you don't have it). You can select the output. It is a good idea to use alsamixer -c0 and check nothing is muted too.

When I select 'Headphone Output', I do not get any sound (I've tried all 3 of the output options). Nothing in muted in any of the sound settings.

Any other possible solutions?

Funny you should ask about this, as I had the exact same problem with my Studio 17 on F13. Read my bug report for instructions on how to enable your headphone\external speakers jacks. It's really a simple matter to resolve. I've since upgraded to F14 so I'm not sure if the updated kernel resolves the issue or not.

I had the same problem with the Dell Inspiron N5010. I followed the instructions above but i didn't find a model that matches the codec i have (IDT 92HD81B1X5) so i tried dell-s14 and it seems to work.
