I understand that it may be undesirable to clutter the UI with an extra tab but, please, at least provide a gconf setting e.g.
on_unknown_device_plugged
0 - show dialog
1 - automatically choose headphones
2 - automatically choose microphone

Title:
  "Unknown audio device" dialog pops up every time I plug in headphones

Status in unity-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've got a combined headphone/headset socket on my Laptop. Every time
  I plug in my headphones, an "unknown audio device" dialog pops up
  asking whether I've plugged in headphones or a headset.  This is isn't
  a great user experience as my phone can auto-detect the device.
