Bug Description
When the output volume is set near 100% and a sound is playing, volume level alternates too fast. Sometimes it goes to mute.
I watched System Settings > Sound and found that sound output device is alternating between 'Analog Output -Built-in Audio' and 'Headphones - Built-in Audio'. The switching is too frequent and introduces glitches in output.
By default output device is 'Analog Output - Built-in Audio'.
