Comment 1 severin.kunz 2015-06-26 12:07:25 UTC
just checked it agin and it seems that the real problem is that fedora doesn't recognice anymore when the headphones are plugged in or not.

Comment 2 Paulo Andrade 2015-07-19 19:07:03 UTC
It should be generating some acpi event.

Try running:

$ /usr/bin/acpi_listen

and plug/unplug it. If it does not show anything,
it may be required some kernel command line option.

Anyway, component is not 0ad :) It should be
acpid or kernel.

Comment 3 severin.kunz 2015-07-19 19:44:49 UTC
Thank you for the reply.

In the meantime some recent update fixed the bug until some days when some other updates brought it back.

I did that and it told me to install acpid. After installing it and running acpi_listen it brings up the error can't open socket /var/run/acpid.socket: No such file or directory

Thanks, I didn't know where this belongs to.

Comment 4 severin.kunz 2015-08-01 11:06:46 UTC
Again ths bug was fixed by an update between the 25. of July and the 1. August.

Comment 5 severin.kunz 2015-08-01 14:50:23 UTC
I'm sorry, it seemed just to work once, now it doesn't work again. I really hope this can be fixed.

Comment 6 _ 2015-08-25 20:05:46 UTC
This also happens to me on Lenovo x240. Speakers work fine, but headphones do not.

Comment 7 Martin Kudlej 2015-08-27 06:18:54 UTC

Comment 8 Paolo Antinori 2015-11-15 19:05:21 UTC
I'm seeing this on Fedora 23 and Lenovo 540p

Comment 9 Joe Thompson 2015-11-18 21:56:17 UTC
Seeing this on F22 and a Sager NP8651.

Comment 10 Fedora End Of Life 2016-07-19 15:03:55 UTC
Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
