Short Answer: Yes and No. Detection works only after plugging and unplugging
headphones.

Long Answer:

First, I am not sure which model option you want me to try. I currently use
dell-m4-1, since I need the built-in mic and Skype for work. However, I guessed
that you rather want me to use dell-m4-2, to which I refer in this reply:

> cat /etc/modprobe.d/sound
#STAC92HD71B*
options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m4-2 position_fix=2
options snd slots=snd-hda-intel
# u1Nb.ztWiP1hTtl5:82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel

> cat /proc/asound/version
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.20-git20090803.
Compiled on Aug  3 2009 for kernel 2.6.27.25-0.1-default (SMP).

* I rebooted with nothing plugged in and heard sound from the built-in
speakers. 
* I plugged in the external speakers to the docking station, and both were
active then. 
* I plugged in headphones into the laptop and only they worked. 
* Upon unplugging the headphones, only the external speakers (docking station)
worked. 
* Unplugging the external speakers (ie everything unplugged): no sound at all
* Plugging in the headphones to the laptop and unplugging them reactivated the
built-in speakers.

So the docking station jack detection seems to work somehow, but is only taken
into account after also plugging and unplugging of headphones.


(PS: Please let me know if I should test things with dell-m4-1 as well. Note
that I will not have access to my docking station for two week from Friday
onwards, since I am going on a business trip with the laptop only.)
