I have ubuntu 13.04 and the sound has never worked in this OS/version for the headset jack. It does work with normal speakers.

The same PC was windows before and it was working ok so no hardware problem It does work with USB headphone

I tried killing pulseaudio program I tried going to Sound > Select output device > test > nothing sounds from the headset It has following output devices: - Digital output (S/PDIF) > No sound.. - Headphones > Sound comes from speaker - Analog output/Built-in > Sound comes from speaker - Analog output/C-media USB > USB sound ok.

Tried opening alsamixer(v1.0.25) and setting high sound volume for all devices, including headphones.

Any tips?

Thanks in advance

My first suggestion is to try to make alsa reload:

  sudo alsa force-reload  

Then you'll want to reboot.

If that doesn't work, try reinstalling pulseaudio and alsa:

 sudo apt-get remove --purge pulseaudio alsa-base 
 sudo apt-get install pulseaudio alsa-base 

Then sudo alsa force-reload again. Remember to reboot.

If even that doesn't work, go into speech-dispatcher:

 sudo gedit /etc/default/speech-dispatcher  

And change RUN=yes to RUN=no. Reboot.
If all else fails, you may have to reinstall Ubuntu and try these commands again (this is what I had to do)
