Bug Description

When plugging in headphones, sound input is correctly switched from internal microphone to the headphones mic. When the headphones are unplugged, sound input is NOT automatically switched back to the internal microphone.

Sound output is switched back and forth correctly.

This bug started happening on my system after I upgraded from 19.10 to 20.04 so it is a regression. Attached is pulseaudio log of what happens when I plug and unplug my headphones.
