Using the Gnome 3.10 settings > sound, all I see is HDMI, Speakers - 
built-in Audio, and Analog Output - Built-in Audio. Speakers is how it 
comes up.  The profile is only Analog Stereo Output.  The test results 
in no sound from the speakers, but from the headphones.  If I switch to 
Analog Output, still nothing out of the speakers.
