@Crusty: Ok, then you are lucky. This bug is more about not being able to toggle headphone jack sense using the mouse. If I plug-in small speakers to my laptop I want disable jack sense so that external and internal speakers are on. This worked in older Ubuntu releases!

Meanwhile I updated to Natty 11.04 and this bug still nags me. But I found a workaround! This command disables jack sense:
  amixer sset 'Headphone Jack Sense' off

So I added a panel icon to start a small script that toggles jack sense. (see attachment).
