Input device does not switch back to internal microphone when analog headset unplugged

[Brian Pursley]

1. Open Settings - Sound
2. Confirm Output Device = "Speakers - Built-in Audio" and Input Device = Internal Microphone - Built-in Audio"
3. Plug analog headset into jack
4. When prompted to select audio device, select "Headset"
5. Confirm Output Device = "Headphones - Built in Audio" and Input Device = "Headset Microphone - Built-in Audio"
6. Unplug analog headset from jack

PROBLEM OCCURS HERE:

Output Device goes back to "Speakers - Built-in Audio", but Input Device remains at "Headset Microphone - Built-in Audio". It should go back to the original setting of "Internal Microphone - Built-in Audio"

WORKAROUND:

Manually change Input Device back to "Internal Microphone - Built-in Audio"
