Public bug reported:

Hi everyone,

when I dock my Thinkpad T440s to my docking station, the sound channel
for the speakers connected to the docking station audio jack are muted
by default. If I run the following command after docking

amixer --card 1 sset 'Speaker+LO' 100%

the sound starts working. Unfortunatly I have to run this command every
time I am docking the system to the docking station. Furthermore there
is specific volume slider is not shown in the audio setttings of Unity.
So this command could only be a temporary workaround... The internal
speakers and the headphones jack of my laptop does not have these
problems.

It would be really nice if the audio output of the docking stations
stays unmuted, when i connect the laptop to the docking station.

Maybe this bug is related to
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1101386, but the workaround
proposed there does not work for me.
