hmmm...interesting.

so that means there's a risk that this 'jack sensing' can be a trouble maker.
if I use any version of Linux that has any kinda issue with onboard soundcard so that I can't control 'jack sensing' stuff.
then when I plug in my headphone, the soundcard will act like there's nothing plugged in?
do you think this kind of worst scenario is possible?

Do you guys have any idea what they mean by, 'software setting'??

Probably jack sensing: http://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/1647/how-does-an-audio-jack-detect-when-a-speaker-is-plugged-in
Although that's a hardware thing. But with 'software setting' they probably mean that you can disable or enable the jack sensing with the help of the driver software for the soundcard.
