I’ve an HP Pavilion notebook (mod. dv6115eu). I’ve installed Debian on it and, listen to music, I’ve tries to insert the jack headphone but the sound come out from speakers yet!

The solution is pretty easy. Download from alsa website the alsa-driver source package.
To compile it, we have to install the right packages before

root~:# apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic libncurses5-dev automake autoconf

Here: ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/ you can find the last source packages.
Make a folder and donwload the source packages

Extract the package

user:~$ tar xjf alsa-driver-X.tar.bz2

Compile and install it

user~:$ cd alsa-driver-X
user~:$ ./configure
root~:# make && make install

Edit /etc/modules and insert at the end of it this kernel module: snd_hda_intel.
Save the file and reboot: the headphone could be work right now!
