comment:
:Sometimes, definitely not daily but more than once a month, my Plantronics CS60-USB headset does not show up in 'Sound Settings'.
:Normally it is sufficient to unplug both USB and power while it sits in the charging base and then reconnect. That is actually the fix-procedure when headset and base are out of sync, but as that also sometimes happens, I always use the same procedure for both failures.
:Today, after this procedure, I would have it show up under the 'Hardware' tab, but not under 'Output'.
:After selecting 'Test Speakers' (with the CS60 selected, of course), control-center aborted.
