Can't disagree strongly enough here. When you plug headphones into your laptop, the sound switches from the speakers to the headphones. No intervention. This should definitely be the same case with plugging in USB headphones. To get it right, pulseaudio's going to need some logic here, to make sure the "fallback" is reasonable, even in the light of plug/unplug events. -- Jeremy Nickurak -= Email/XMPP: jeremy at nickurak.ca =-
