Sound PreferencesI am using Ubuntu 22.04.

When I log in to Ubuntu, the audio output is set to whatever is in when I log in, and will not change whether or not I put in the headphones.

If I login with the headphones in, and pull the headphones out, there is no switch to speakers. Similarly, if I login with the headphones out, plugging in the headphones does nothing.

I can switch the audio output in sound preferences, but I would like the change to occur automatically.

A solution presented here Sound output doesn't change automatically after connecting to Bluetooth headset doesn't work.

How can I get the audio output to automatically switch when headphones are pulled out or in?

I am 99% sure that the solution is to remove gnome-audio by running:

sudo apt remove gnome-audio

I say 99% because I had also removed callaudiod (using sudo apt remove callaudiod), but it's most likely that removing gnome-audio fixed this.

Adding options snd-hda-intel model=dell-headset-multi to the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file worked for me.
