[A83] Re: (OT?) Headphone / Line out <---> Link Port
You could try to add the following transistor circuit:
c /----------- to jack
-------- b| /
----| 220R |--------|< npn
in -------- | \ |
__\|
e \
|
---
This cirquit logically inverts the signals, so the lines get shorted if a
high voltage is present on "in".
I didn't test the circuit, so it might not work, if not, try to mess
around with the resistor first. It may need to be higher or lower.
