Problem seems to be by design (can the behavior be disabled?).-Stoic Joker (August 13, 2012, 11:41 AM)

Earphone sockets used to normally incorporate a physical switch that disconnects output to the speakers, (either directly or indirectly), when the plug is inserted - only way to bypass that is solder across the switch contacts, (easiest method).

These days they probably detect the presence of earphones by the impedance - there may be a way to override output switching via the service menu but, naturally, you have to know whether it can be done, how to get into the service menu and where the option is hidden, (may be nothing more than a hex value).

Note that you can do an awful lot of damage, (ie. brick your TV), while you're in a Service Menu - not something to be done lightly.
