Title:
  Dell Alienware 14, Speaker sound output is mono until a headphone jack
  is plugged

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Here's the required release and package information:

      Description:    Ubuntu Trusty Tahr (development branch)
      Release:        14.04

      Package: linux-image-extra-3.13.0-19-generic
      Version: 3.13.0-19.40

  When playing audio through speakers on my Alienware 14 2014, the sound
  output is in mono until I plug a headphone in any of the two available
  headphone jacks (obviously, the auto-mute option must be disabled).
  When I do so, the sound starts to play in stereo.

  I would love the sound output to be stereo by default and not be
  forced to plug anything to achieve that.

  Attached is the alsa-info.sh output for my machine.
