Title: Lineout and headphones audio keep switching automatically -- broken audio Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have been a long-term Ubuntu user (since 10.04) and take pride in having fixed all problems on my own thanks to the excellent documentation, but this time I am utterly stumped and have run out of ideas (hence this report). With my headphones jacked in, the line out and headphones output options keep switching automatically, resulting in crackling (and broken audio). I have tried many solutions I found online but none of the suggested fixes work. I am attaching a video of what I see (note that this happens automatically, I don't click anywhere) This is not a hardware issue (the headphones work fine on another machine running Ubuntu 16.04, and as far as I'm aware this problem only appeared after I upgraded from 16.04 to 18.04). $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS Release: 18.04 I have uploaded two different videos showing what I see here: https://youtu.be/S49cEC5DRsk https://youtu.be/zSfi5ko5nBY --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.5 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: jp 5422 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: jp 5422 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC2: jp 5422 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=84a04536-72b0-461c-99b3-6dd8190bd471 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-05-12 (992 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160420.1) IwConfig: docker0 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions. enp4s0 no wireless extensions.
