With today's implementation it doesn't work, since if you switch profiles the jack won't change its state, so module-switch-on-port-available will not notice that. What it could be done is to ensure when you create a sink/source, to report jack state, but this is a local function in alsa-module-card. It would need more hack to make it work. Also, this is not hardcode the port, since the sink/source it self does that, it checks if someone else set active_port before, otherwise sets itself. IHMO this patch is less intrusive. > > Also, what if two jacks are both available at the time of the profile > switch? Like I said on the second message, I re-implemented it sorting by priority. PS: One comment about module-switch-on-port-available is that it needs to be loaded before module-alsa-card(also udev detect, if using it) in order to switch to the port if a jack was connected before PA.
