When plugged in jack directly in mother board and another jack port on my case i can switch between headphone or line out. In latests versions it stopped working. Plugged both jacks and only headphones working. Switching to line out ends with silence and no sound at all. Had to plug out headphones physically.
Other problem is with profiles. Would be nice to see if could assign different profile to every port. Want to use on speakers 2.1 profile but then headphones wont work and had to switch also this profile.
To make it clear i paste here add screenshot
Problem since at least 5.24.2 version. Now tested with 5.24.4

One issue per bug report, please. :) 

Can you change the output using the "pavucontrol" app? You may have to install it using Discover if it's not already installed.

With pavucontrol the same effect like before.

Thanks, that means the problem is below us, either in PulseAudio or PipeWire (depending on which audio backend is in use: pure PulseAudio, or emulated PulseAudio via pipewire-pulse). Either way I'd recommend filing a bug report with the PulseAudio folks at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/issues/.

Thanks for your time. Reported on pulseaudio git and linked this report. Profiles probably should also be assigned to pulseaudio so i won't wast your time with this ;).
