Speakers don't mute when headphones plugged in
 
It has been a while since I used my wired headphones with my N900, & now I find that plugging in the headphones does not mute the speakers.

I am using CSSU-Testing, & have searched for a similar report with no results.

Has anyone else discovered this, or does anyone have any suggestions?

does the headphone icon appear on the status bar, and are we to understand that you get sound on *both* the loudspeaker and headphone simultaneously?

The headphone icon does not appear in the status bar.

Sound continues to come from the speakers, & does not come from the headphones.

likely your jack has gone south then.

check dmesg on terminal .. when you plug in headphone, you should get "headphone (GPIO 177) is now connected"

fwiw, you may want to try different headphones as well before we declare your jack as problematic.

Odd, since I only used the jack a few times before getting my bluetooth headphones.

Edit:
dmesg is showing the headphones connecting & disconnecting at the correct state.

Resolved:

Headphones with four contact rings did not work; headphones with three contact rings did work. Thanks for you help!

bad headphones then :)
by the way, WH-205 headsets are known to do this when old (at least on N900)
