This is true; the headphone jacks usually have an integrated disconnect |
| 12 |
switch for the internal laptop speakers, to be tripped when a plug is |

inserted. |

I doubt it, since they work in windows. More likely, this new-ish |

It too think this would be very helpful. amixer will list each of the |
