Thread: 12.04 - how to disable laptop internal audio?


hello there,

using lenove w510 internal speakers & microphone; of time laptop sitting in docking station; , have usb headset connected docking station.

ubuntu 11.xx "sound settings" panel did allow me select hardware profile devices. profile be

off
analog output
analog output&input
...

typically set laptop internal audio "off".

so, few occasions when laptop wasnt docked ... , need sound, go panel, enable internal audio ... listen ... , disable afterwards.
90% of time, laptop switched on in docking station sees enabled headset ...

big advantage of that: when laptop docked, there isnt doubt on device use - internal audio off ... picks headset. without me doing anything.

100% want. not want turn audio settings every switch on laptop in docking station.

ubuntu 12.04 ... devices show time. selection of profile (that turn off) gone.

huge step backwards in eyes.

idea on how enable behavior used to?

besides: find hihgly confusing "primary" output selected via clicking. right now, see 3 options
in "play sound through" ... , make choice clicking on 1 them?! entry highlighted ... meaning: is
used now. why giving on radio buttons? easier spot & understand!

edit:

mailed mailing list , told:
* maybe "off" profile 12.10
* use pavu control (which hate) set devices "off"
