Sound comes out of my speakers even when headphones are plugged in

I have an Asus K60IJ laptop, I am new to linux and was forced to come to linux when my windows os crashed on me and the reinstall disks would not work, Every time I plug in my headphones I have sound coming from my speakers as well, I messed with sound settings under output I see Analog Output and Analog Headphones seems no matter what one I pick sound comes from both.

I also installed Gnome-Alsa Mixer and Alsamixergui and Pulse audio control as well as Pulse audio mixer and pulse audio volume control, I have messed with all of them and none of them will fix the issue or give me a run around on manipulating the sound card.

I am running Ubuntu 11.10x32

Please can someone help me? I ask in irc but everyone ignores me for some reason and if they do help they are not successful.

Thank you in Advance.

According to this you can check a button called "Headphone jack sense" in gnome-alsamixer that should fix the problem. The same can be done through alsamixer by going over to "Headphone" and hitting the 'M' key.

Also have a look at this bug report. The OP says he solved it from a link on the report.

The bug report tells one way to do it, but the easier way is through the actual PPA:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/alsa-daily && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install alsa-hda-dkms
