Title:
  Mute toggles on/off while plugged into the headphone/speaker jack
  (19.04+)

Status in alsa-utils package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm on an HP Pavilion dv9000 (https://www.cnet.com/products/hp-
  pavilion-dv9000/specs/) built many years ago.

  
  Whenever I'm using any distro that's based on Ubuntu which was published from Version 19.04 onwards, I've been having a major issue with the mute button toggling on and off whenever I have something plugged into the audio out jack. I know that it's not the fault of XFCE, because I also use the latest version of Manjaro with XFCE on this same computer, and it works fine. I also know it's not any Red Hat-based distro, because I use Stella (which is a remix of CentOS 6) also on this exact same computer, and it also works fine. Qubes, Mageia, and Fedora 31 also work perfectly fine and don't have this issue.

  My "lsb-release" is:
  DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
  DISTRIB_RELEASE=19.10
  DISTRIB_CODENAME=eoan
  DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 19.10"

  and "apt-cache policy alsa-utils" outputs:
  alsa-utils:
    Installed: 1.1.9-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 1.1.9-0ubuntu1
    Version table:
   *** 1.1.9-0ubuntu1 500
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu eoan/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  I've uploaded a short video of the problem that I recorded with my phone here:
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXaHXQA-5uQ

  
  The problem appears with Kali 2019 and 2020, Peppermint 19.04, Lubuntu 19.04, Xubuntu 19.04, and Sparky 5.10 and 2020.02.

  
  I've checked pretty much everything I can think of. There's a log for my ALSA help diagnostics results on my current computer (which works properly with 18.04) at:
  http://alsa-project.org/db/?f=4859b85cd7fc32e7f01f8df63591b5a43dbf6829

  I've tried reinstalling both PulseAudio and ALSA Mixer, and nothing
  works. I'm completely lost for ideas. What can I do to solve the
  problem? Can anybody please help?
