SUMMARY

When turning on my bluetooth headset, I then have to go into the volume panel and next to the output and capture, click the device menu and select "Play all audio via this device" then do the same for the capture section.

It would seem that upon connecting a bluetooth audio device, that it should now be the single playback device, and if capture is supported, should now be the single capture device.

It is a pretty big annoyance when answering a work chat/call on my computer and putting/turning on my headset.  Especially since while I'm fumbling through the volume tray, the call audio is often blaring out of my speakers.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Turn on paired bluetooth headset


OBSERVED RESULT

Audio continues to play out via speakers and not the headset
Audio does not capture via the headset


EXPECTED RESULT

Audio plays and captures via the headset only, without having to access the volume tray/panel
