Public bug reported: Been this way since at least 15.
Plug in your headphones, boot up your laptop. No sound. Speakers and headphones are disabled. Super annoying, you have to unplug and re-plug, and go through the stupid dialogue of "what are you trying to plug in?" which has no memory, and no defaults. Please, please, please, fix this Ubuntu team!
