Well, there are types of visual feedback that are useful and there are types that aren't. A "Bluetooth device successfully paired" notification is useful because there was always some chance that it would fail, and you need to know whether or not that happened. I could see a "headphones/speakers plugged in" notification being //theoretically// useful because it communicates that all running streams will be redirected to the new audio output... but isn't that what the user was expecting to happen anyway? Is there any value to notifying the user that what they expected to happen happened when they performed an action that was 100% guaranteed to succeed? This may be just me, but I find such feedback to be really annoying. People likewise complain about the "you trashed this item!" notification in Dolphin <https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=391591>. They think, "duh I trashed it, you don't need to tell me that it worked!"
