Headphone jack doesn't work ASUS u47VC laptop

Thread title says it all. I have anew ASUS u47VC and everything with linux has so far worked perfectly! Just one little thing needs to be fixed. When I put in my headphones the speakers on the computer mute (like they should), but there is nothing coming from my head phones.

I already checked and put every single volume meter to max, and made sure that everyone was un-muted. Still nothing.

I checked my sound card:

Code:

---

john@john-Ubuntu-U47VC:~$ sudo lspci | grep -i audio
[sudo] password for john:
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Panther Point High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04)

---

Thank you in advance!!!

Is there any more information needed in order to solve this problem?

I checked my sound card's codac and found that it is a ALC270. Is there any driver or something that I could tell alsa/pulse to use for this specific card?

Is there any solution to this problem?

I ran alsa info script:

I have had zero luck in the past with pulse audio and this is no exception. Uninstalled pulse, and it works.

Thanks. Very helpful to know that this notebook is fully compatible with Linux. You may want to add it to the list on http://www.linux-on-laptops.com where this model is not yet listed (which always make me worry).

I would like to further test it before I add it to the list. But once I'm satisfied with its performance I will add it for sure!
