Worked for me on a Dell Studio 1737.

Output head -n 1 /proc/asound/card0/codec*:
Codec: IDT 92HD73C1X5

zless ALSA-Configuration gave:
STAC92HD73*

So I added 'option snd-hda-intel model=dell-m6'
Rebooted and magic!

It switches automagically on inserting jack, so no need for manual switching!
Thank you very much!!

Tried
options snd-hda-intel model=targa-dig
options snd-hda-intel model=auto probe_mask=1 position_fix=1
options snd-hda-intel model=lenovo

and lots more.

Whatever I do, I can't stop the speakers playing with I switch to headphones :/

Running a Realtek ACL888

Works on ASUS F3N laptops.

Codec: Realtek ALC660-VD

I used: options snd-hda-intel model=lenovo

Just leave headphone switch on, speakers turn off when you plug the jack in.


THANK YOU!

Worked on Gateway 6850FX!

Update: No longer working. WTF? Today I booted up and plugged in speakers and no sound from external speakers. Reboot with plugged in and it works. Unplug and plug back in...not working. Help please?

This is a half bump half help request. I have an identical problem as this (only with headphones, but they both use the same jack) and I hadn't tried any of this before hand. I attempted the workaround in the OP trying multiple different options, but nothing worked. aplay -l gives me this:

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: STAC92xx Analog [STAC92xx Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: HDMI [HDA ATI HDMI], device 3: ATI HDMI [ATI HDMI]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

head -n 1 /proc/asound/card0/codec* yields this:

==> /proc/asound/card0/codec#0 <==
Codec: SigmaTel STAC9205

==> /proc/asound/card0/codec#1 <==
Codec: LSI ID 1040

I tried the options for STAC9205 in the list of different sda-hda-intel options, but like I said nothing improved, not to mention that the only ones listed were dell. My laptop model is Gateway T-1621. I would absolutely LOVE anyone that can assist with this as this is driving me crazy! All I want to do is use my headphones when I want to without having to have them plugged in prior to boot. :'(

Just wanted to say THANKS! I've been wandering about the different posts for the last couple of hours when I finally discovered this one, which gave me all the info I needed to fix my sound problems with my laptop.

For other's info, its a LG T1 Series Laptop with an ALC880 sound card. The module to use was simply the lg option. Works perfectly now.

This was the ONLY solution that worked to this. No one else seems to even understand the problem.
Thank you So Much. Without this I'd given up on Ubuntu, a thing like this simply does it you know.
