Description of problem: I have several audio devices but am using the built-in speaker and headphones much of the time. I am using the Plasma desktop with its audio device icon. When I am using the built-in speaker and plug in the headphones, output switches to them as expected. But when I plug them back out, the system switches to another audio device, not to the speaker. Noreover. the built-in device remains at "Headphones" and can not be selected. I have to click the options next to it and select the speaker - only then the speaker works. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Every time. However, does not happen if no other audio device is attached. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use a laptop with a built-in speaker and ensure another audio device (USB or HDMI) is attached. 2. Switch audio output to speaker. 3. Plug in headphones, audio switches to headphones. 4. Plug out headphones. Actual results: Audio output switches to another device. You can't switch it to speaker quickly as the built-in device remains at "headphones". Expected results: Audio output switches to speaker Additional info: Laptop model: ThinkPad P1Gen3
