I do use a rather crude workaround for this with alsamixer – but it’s rather clumsy and switches between outputting sound to both devices simultaneously or headphones only – not an elegant solution.
I’ve searched for solution for some time but couldn’t find anything good. I think I’ve seen them as separate devices on older (not recent) versions of Fedora as well but I can be mistaken here. I have to say that Windows does show speakers and headphones as separate output devices and allows switching between them easily – so I’m quite sure the same can be achieved in Linux. I know that sound output switching works ok when I physically remove/connect my headphones, but is there a way to achieve the same without unlugging anything?
