I am an affected soul. See bug 1876238 and bug 1878327 which were marked as duplicate.
I had earlier tested the patch from Kai-Heng Feng's (kaihengfeng) PPA, and it was working fine. I had enabled to receive Pre-released updates. I downloaded the proposed update (1:13.99.1-1ubuntu3.3), applied it, and tested the update. The internal speakers, both the headphone jacks and the internal mic, all are working fine now. Unplugged the headphones and plugged them again and again. Sound can be heard. Sound is getting automatically redirected to the headphones when connected to jack interfaces and back to the internal speakers when headphones are unplugged. Tested/tried multiple times and is working fine every time. Thank you. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1876065 Title: After unplug headphones and plug them again no sound can be heard Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in pulseaudio source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in pulseaudio source package in Groovy: Fix Committed Bug description: * Impact Sound isn't automatically redirected to headphones when those are connected to a jack interface * Test case Disconnect the headsets Start your webbrowser/music player/video player and play some sound Connect the headsets to the jack interface -> the sound should be directly redirected to the plugged headsets * Regression potential Check that audio routing when connecting/disconnecting devices to the hack entry is working correctly ---- After startup with headset plugged in they play sound nicely - no issue. When they are unplugged, the sound is switched to the speaker (laptop) - all good. However, when I plug the headset back there is no sound. I see the app on pavucontrol, the volume is fine - everything looks fine except there is no sound. I dumped output of "pactl list" command on startup (headset plugged), after unplugging the headset, and when it is plugged back. From the comparison of these outputs, it looks like the source has got muted after the headset is plugged.
