Description nbgyan 2021-05-06 17:48:18 UTC 
SUMMARY
I found out recently that even when a headphone is plugged into my laptop the audio plays in both outputs, the computer's speakers and the headphone as well. It stops only when I select from the panel which of the outputs should play.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect a headphone to laptop
2. Play an audio
3. Inspect the output 

OBSERVED RESULT
Audio plays from the computer's speakers and the headphone as well.

EXPECTED RESULT
I expect the computer's audio to be muted because the headphone is connected.
