Worked fine a week ago. Yesterday when I plugged headphones into my Asus laptop, I got sound both from headphones and speakers. Today after system crash (not sure what was the reason) when I plug headphones, speakers are muted automatically but there is no sound from headphones.

I've found few suggestions to add options snd-hda-intel model=auto or options snd-hda-intel model=laptop to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf. I did that too, restarted alsa-utils but that didn't help at all.
Also tried this superuser answer already. No luck either - auto mute is enabled. Also channels aren't muted:

Basically I'm using vanilla Debian Wheezy with all updates installed. Everything worked fine few days ago. I can't recall if I installed any alsa related updates recently.
