Bug Description

It worked fine in 11.10.

I expect sound to speakers when there are no headphones plugged ad sound to headphones else.

if headphones was plugged in on startup, they works, but if I unplug it, speakers don't work.
If headphones wasn't plugged before startup, sound is in speakers and in headphones at the same time.
