Sound defaults to Headset

[User 18618]

Thanks for the bump @natasha , I've been putting this off... PulseAudio is the bane of GNU/Linux.

The Internal and Headset ports are available via a single sink and source. The Headset has priority, you can evaluate this using pactl:

Code:

pactl list sources
pactl list sinks

---

Installing the 5.8 kernel solves this issue (comment).

Code:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install linux-image-5.8-sunxi64
sudo reboot

Headset now correctly manifests as 'Headset (Unplugged)'. The Internal speaker and Internal microphone are now the default.

Priorities are unchanged, meaning the active source and sink ports can change when a Headset is plugged in.
