Hi all!
Using C6 on an Asus M5A99X EVO R2.0 motherboard with AMD six core FX6300. That board uses Realtek ALC892 audio chipset.
For the first time since I got that motherboard I tried plugging in headphones to the front panel speaker output. I was somewhat displeased to note that the speakers don't mute when that happens.
I recall seeing info on that in Fedora, but not Centos, and haven't so far scared up how to troubleshoot it.
I can MANUALLY change the setting in sound preferences, which offers only two choices: "Analog Output" and "Analog Headphones".
Suggestions will be welcomed!

Might have a look at amixer and see if you have an option you can alter similar to:
Simple mixer control 'Auto-Mute Mode',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'Disabled' 'Speaker Only' 'Line Out+Speaker' Item0: 'Line Out+Speaker'
And see if you can set it ala:
/usr/bin/amixer -c0 set "Auto-Mute Mode" "Line Out+Speaker"

Matthew:
thanks for the reply. so far, that isn't working, and I'm still perusing the man page. here's what I get:
$ /usr/bin/amixer -c0 set "Auto-Mute Mode" "Line Out+Speaker" amixer: Unable to find simple control 'Auto-Mute Mode',0
I also note that when I do amixer -c0 controls, the resulting list does NOT contain either "Auto-Mute Mode" or "Line Out+Speaker" as permissible controls:
