Thanks KillerKiwi - earcandy does seem to provide the behaviour I want (will take a look at it in more detail)
As you say, this really "ought" to be fixed in PulseAudio and/or Ubuntu formally (which could involve earcandy being installed and started by default). On my Mac, I can just plug in the same headset, and the audio switches transparently. It's crazy that this is not default behaviour on USB headsets. -- No easy way to switch default sound output to USB headphones https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380928 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
