Public bug reported: When I plugin a USB headphone the output is not recognized. The mic works, but not the headphone. In phonon I see that when i plug in the USB headphone, the profile chages to HDMI. In 13.04 it worked flawless. Plugging in the headphone switched the sound immediately to the headphones in 13.04. I do not think the bugreporting went ok I did thru 'ubuntu-bug -s audio' . Apachelogger helper me out on IRC. He says to mention " sound works fine when bypassing pulseaudio, with pulseaudio you get that alsa warning". So it seems a pulseaudio bug. Sorry my reporting is a bit lame, but I am not a dev.
Just ping me on IRC benvantende if you need more info. IRC log incuded below. tHNx [11:28:30] <benvantende> uhhh well yes speakers is al fine. the problem seems to be in how the usb headphone is recognized. mic works fine, but no output thru the headset [11:28:58] <benvantende> everytime i reconnect the usb the sound device defaults to HDMI [11:29:52] <apachelogger> that's not what the setting does. [11:29:56] -*- apachelogger really needs to fix that -.- [11:30:02] <apachelogger> alas, it's not a setting :P [11:30:17] <apachelogger> benvantende: as sound card select your headphones, then make another screenshot please [11:32:24] --> Jekyll (~whodare@121.28.132.18) has joined #kubuntu-devel [11:35:09] <apachelogger> ah [11:35:19] <benvantende> apachelogger: http://imgur.com/74H8iDH [11:35:32] <apachelogger> afiestas_: now I get it ... the problem is that it does not show up in about-user kcm thing?
