I hinted gpio1, which gives me sound from both speakers and headphones. Thanks! There's still a few issues however: - Plugging in the headphones does not mute the speakers. - There's a speaker setting in mixer, but it doesn't work. - More problematic, the sound sounds like it's from a tape recorder with low battery: it speeds up and slows down, seemingly randomly, with a period of seconds. Makes for bad-sounding music playback at least. This is a laptop, so I suspected powerd, but even disabling powerd didn't seem to help. Is there a buffering setting I should be looking at changing? Thanks, Peter
