Hello souravmondal, welcome to LQ,

could you please post the output of

Code:

lspci -k | grep -iA5 sound

You may as well (as root or with sudo) execute the alsaconf command which configures your soundcard. Also you may execute the alsamixer command (in a terminal as a normal user) and check the settings.

in the 4th post NOW you inform us as to this being a laptop !
that should have been in the FIRST post .

did you reboot after cleaning out /tmp ?
pid files are stored there

and if you removed them with out shutting down the service .... bad news ( Ubuntu will have the same problem )

In a terminal execute the [code]alsamixer[/command]probably there are separate "buttons" for the headphone.
