Bug Description
As a follow-up from: https:/
I have a Dell XPS 7590 with a combined headset jack. As I understood from the previous ticket 1876056, when on Ubuntu you plug in something, it will prompt you what you plugged in: either a headset or headphones. Kubuntu doesn't do this. This means that it will never automatically switch to the headset microphone when I plug it in, even though I never ever use headphones on this laptop.
So it would be great if Kubuntu would prompt me what I plugged in and allow me to either select every time or select the default option when I plug something in.
For now I'm working around this by adding
[Jack Headphone Mic]
state.plugged = no
state.unplugged = unknown
[Jack Headset Mic]
state.plugged = no
state.unplugged = unknown
to /usr/share/
I'm really not sure against what package I should report this - please correct me if this should be more specific (e.g. phonon or kde multimedia). I wouldn't know which part this would be.
The desktop integration is not up to pulseaudio, reassigning to KDE
