K3: "SPKR+PH" - not sticky

[Jack Berry]

I use headphones on SSB most of the time through the front PHONES jack. I
 have the "SPKR+PH" option set to 'no'. MCU 4.6 installed.
Not
always, but too often when I have been listening through the speaker and
 decide to plug in the headphones I get audio in both headphones and
speaker.
If I go back to CONFIG: SPKR+PH and toggle between 'yes' and
 'no', the problem is cured for that session. I have no identified any
other actions that precede the event but I'm certain it shouldn't be
happening.

Any others with this experience or a fix for the problem?

Almost the same problem here. The difference is that toggling SPKR+PH on and off has no effect. I'm also sure the MCU isn't the reason, as this popped up well after changing to 4.6, but I suppose there could be different reasons for you and I.  I have convinced myself that the headphone jack up front is the problem. As usual, dissassembling stuff is a problem with bad fingers. The present quick fix is to put a small book over the speaker ... klutzy but works quite well.

Gotta like low tech! Works without software and shielded cables.

FWIW:  K3 S/N 642 [i.e. old, at least in "K3 Years"].  SPKR+PH assigned
to PF1 [HOLD RIT].  The only macro I have assigned anywhere.  It has
never failed to work, except before I stuck the K3 down so I could
really push the buttons. Quite a few other "button pushing problems"
went away after I anchored the K3 to the shelf.  Note to self:
"Lightweight is often good, sometimes, not so much].

Full Disclosure:  My Heil ProSet connects on the back connectors.  I
have never used the front panel connectors, don't know if they even work.
