Description Pablo 2017-05-29 17:09:17 UTC
I've an onboard sound card with a whole lot of profiles (Digital I/O, Analog with lots of channel configurations, etc.). I've set the profile "Analog Duplex" to be the default in the applet and in the Multimedia kcm. If I plug-in a headphone in the front header the output is changed seamlessly to "Headphone"; but when I unplug it the sound profile is reseting to "Digital Stereo Output" instead of "Analog Duplex". 

I've tried this suggestion [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PulseAudio#Switch_on_connect] but it doesn't seem to work. openSUSE tumbleweed is affected also.

You should make sure that module-device-manager module is not loaded. Otherwise, the bug is in PulseAudio and you should report it there.
Comment 2 Pablo 2017-05-31 12:37:49 UTC
It seems it has been reported (and reopened) there already. Just for the record, here's the upstream bug report:
