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.

[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

[11:35:32] <apachelogger> afiestas_: now I get it ... the problem is that it 
does not show up in about-user kcm thing?
[11:35:51] --> dpm (~dpm@ubuntu/member/dpm) has joined #kubuntu-devel
[11:36:13] <apachelogger> benvantende: if you click the 'front left' button you 
don't get any output?
[11:36:18] <benvantende> no
[11:36:57] <apachelogger> hm
[11:37:29] <apachelogger> benvantende: on the first tab, did you try 'apply 
list to..." and applied it to everything?
[11:38:16] <benvantende> apachelogger: yes let me shuffle it around and do that 
again
[11:38:43] <benvantende> apachelogger: i also think the whole HDMI option was 
not there before 13.10. not totally sure though
[11:39:15] <apachelogger> should have been anyway
[11:39:45] <apachelogger> in terminal run: PHONON_PULSEAUDIO_DEBUG=5 
PHONON_DEBUG=5 PHONON_BACKEND_DEBUG=5 kcmshell4 phonon &> phonon.log
[11:40:10] <apachelogger> in the first tab make sure your headphones are at the 
top of the list, then click test, wait for about 10 seconds
[11:40:36] <apachelogger> then on the second tab select your headphones as 
sound card, and click front left
[11:41:07] <apachelogger> close the window again and in your home directory is 
a file called phonon.log, please poste the content to paste.kde.org
[11:44:03] <benvantende> apachelogger: there you go sir! 
http://pastebin.kde.org/pdbrocisn
[11:44:04] <apachelogger> afiestas_, Riddell, shadeslayer: so... 
accountsservice uses .face, however kcm_useraccount and kdm use .face.icon 
though... so the options are to patch kcm/kdm or patch kcm/kdm ... ultimately 
the kcm would be ported to accoutnsservice though
[11:45:43] <apachelogger> ALSA lib pcm.c:2239:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown

[11:47:53] <apachelogger> first tab, find your headset in the list ... should 
say (USB Audio) next to it ... select it and click test
[11:47:56] <apachelogger> do you get sound?
[11:49:18] <benvantende> i get a list with default, hw:0,0 etc, but YES SOUND
[11:49:37] <apachelogger> pulseaudio bug then it seems
[11:50:11] <benvantende> can i report that? i am afraid i cannot describe that 
issue really well ;)
[11:50:29] <-- Jekyll (~whodare@121.28.132.18) has quit (Quit: Konversation 
terminated!)
[11:51:15] <apachelogger> benvantende: just kcmshell4 phonon again ...... 
second tab select your headphones as sound card again, go through profiles and 
check if any of them produces sound using using the test buttons below
[11:52:35] <benvantende> apachelogger: NO "ALSA lib 
pcm.c:2239:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM 11"
[11:54:22] <apachelogger> oh

[11:54:34] <apachelogger> benvantende: change profile to steore out + mono in

[11:54:51] <apachelogger> then open kmix and make sure your volume is actually 
>0 ^^
[11:57:59] <apachelogger> benvantende: was the volume >0?
[11:58:09] <-- santa (~sa...@150.0.117.91.dynamic.mundo-r.com) has quit (Quit:
