For switching profiles, we are a little more cautious, only switch from an unavailable port to an available one. Profile switching is mainly used for HDMI/DisplayPort, and this is to avoid switching from analog to HDMI/DP when it becomes available. See http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2012-March/012991.html and replies for more information.
