Re: [Jackaudio] no audio through headphone jack

It is working now! I get the sound through the speakers connected to the back port, and if I plug in the headphones on the front port the sound to the speakers stops and I get sound in the headphones, as normal in Pulseaudio and Windows. I have no idea why it started working. Yesterday I spent hours trying unsuccessfully to make it work. I tried an alsa tool called hdajackretask. This messed up the sound card on the motherboard and I had to reboot the computer - as suggested in the documentation for the tool. Maybe the reboot fixed something in Jack. Anyway, this issue is solved and I am very much enjoying the Jack sound which has a crystalline clearness that Pulse lacks! Now that it works on the desktop I will configure my new Thinkpad laptop the same way. Thanks a lot to all the Jack developers! :)
