Hi,
I bought HP UltraSlim Docking Station recently, everything works fine except audio - despite the fact that external jack speakers are connected, sound is still being played from laptop internal speakers. In the sound settings I can see port selection, but option “Headphones” has status “disconnected”.

EDIT: I’ve found workaround using “hdajackretask” tool from alsa-tools package:
- Set pin 0x14 to “Not Connected”
- Set pin 0x1b to “Internal Speaker”
- Install boot override, reboot
- Select “Speaker” as port for internal stereo audio device in pulseaudio config.
Some notes:
- Pin 0x1b for unknown reason is being shown as not connected, regardless of real state - you have to enable “Show unconnected pins” option to be able configure it.
- Leaving 0x14 port as is causes sound to be played on both internal and external speakers.
