Hi lidex! I am encountering the same problem. Laptop built-in speakers works but as soon as i plug my headphones no sound is produced. Could you please have a look at mine as well?

Hello lidex,

I have a simple Logitech headset + mic, once once the plug is jacked in, it doesn't switch the sound to the headset.
On pavucontrol, when I choose manually to stream on HDMI conroller, there's no sound.

here's my alsa-info script output:

here's aplay -L output while streaming on HDMI:

I'm facing the same problem.. When I plug in my headphones I'm not able to hear anything but external speakers are working fine. The result from running the wget command is located at http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=12...997aa3d438f740

Try this using a Terminal="Applications->Accessories->Terminal"

echo "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

Reboot

Update for Lenovo G470 (and possibly for some other Lenovo Essential and Ideapad series laptops/notebooks).

After several updates (from official ubuntu repos, not PPAs) one of the modes did the trick for me (albeit with a little glitch).

Making sure you have the latest alsa drivers installed and inserting

options snd-hda-intel model=asus

into /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf enables the internal mic and the switching between speakers/headphones.

Note that you might need to ajust sound/mic volumes through PulseAudio Volume Control (pavucontrol) and check for the correct devices through PulseAudio Device Chooser (padevchooser). For more details on this see u0x's blog.

The only downside for me at this time is that the mic volume is quite low and there is static noise, although not enough to make a Skype conversation unintelligible or uncomfortable.

Hope this helps those looking to fix sound issues on their Lenovos.
Any tips on getting rid of the mic static altogether greatly appreciated.
