[arch-general] speakers don't turn off when headphones inserted

Hello,

I just obtained a Fujitsu P7120 notebook (a very nice model, by the way).

Overall, I am getting this working with Arch just fine (although I
would definitely appreciate pointers from anyone else who has
installed Arch, especially as I have been using a desktop until now
and haven't had the need to configure notebook-type features).

One problem I am having that I don't know how to fix is that when I
plug in headphones, the speakers don't turn off. Alsamixer shows that
the headphones and speakers have separate controls, something I have
never seen in a notebook before. While cool, I would really love to
have this automatically toggle as expected. Does anyone have a
suggestion?

Thanks,

Scott
