Hi, had fed core 6 running on my laptop and sound was ok, then i installed fedora 7, it hadn't detected my sound card until i upgraded to the kernel and reinstalled alsa (all options available on yumex- alsa alsa-lib,-development,-utils...etc). Sound is ok but for one problem the headphone jack isn't working and is not noticed in the volume control. Any ideas?sorry A135-S2286.

Does it show up in alsamixer? Some output from /sbin/lspci -v, /sbin/lsmod, would be helpful.
Good luck. ;-)

Sound plays from speaker
Connecting headphones: no sound and/or momentary sound which vanishes.

What settings do you have in alsamixer?
Good luck. ;-)

I have tried all combinations. I also have a problem using the microphone with ekiga (native) /skype 1.4 but I have not tried very hard to solve it (this is why I did not mention it in me original post)

K

What does your ~/.asoundrc file look like?
Good luck. ;-)
