HDA Nvidia Sound Card - Peculiar Problem

[sakthi]

Hi All

I am running hardy heron (32 bit desktop) on my AMD Athlon X2 64 desktop.

I have a peculiar problem like the sound works well with headphones but not normally. Without headphones there is not a bit of sound coming out. I have done various things like compiling alsa-base, alsa-lib and alsa-utils.....adding some lines in alsabase and all. I have also tried installing linux backport generic drivers which comes for hardy. But nohting helped to get sound without the headphones. Can someone help me please.....

here are my aplay and lspci outputs:


~$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****

~$ lspci | grep Audio
