I chose the headset through f6 and unmuted the two elements in there, but it made no difference. Also: when I mute headphones on the main page of alsamixer, it mutes my speakers as well. Can anyone help?

          Well ... maybe, but I'm not so sure.

          With your headphone plugged in, open System Settings > Multimedia > Phonon (depending your KDE version it maybe slightly different). You want the "Music" device highlighted on the "Device Preference" list. Now what do you see in the right-hand panel? Can you highlight each device, then click on the "Test" button in the bottom right corner, and produce a sound?

            I found through experience that it's just impossible to help someone who doesn't try what they are asked, or given any details on what is going on. I am not sure that Pulse Audio wouldn't help, either. Oh well!

              This works. My issue now is that headphones won't work with browser (I listen to a lot of music on Youtube when programming)
