According to the "pactl list cards" output, you only have headphone and
spdif outputs, and headphones are currently not plugged in. Since
they're not plugged in, Gnome audio settings doesn't show that output
as being available.

Is it so that you actually do have headphones plugged in? Or is there
some other output that pulseaudio doesn't detect?

What does this command print when you have headphones plugged in?

while read -r line; do amixer -c0 cget "$line"; done <<< $(amixer -c0 controls | grep Jack)

The command asks alsa about the jack states. If the jack detection
doesn't work in pulseaudio, it's probably an alsa bug.
