Title:
  Pulseaudio settings won't switch the IO device

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello,

  I've got an ASUS motherboard with back and front audio connectors.
  Ubuntu recognizes the headphones when I plug them into the front
  connectors while my speakers are still connected to the back
  connectors.

  But after I plug the headphones in, I cannot switch back to the
  speakers. Whatever I do in the system settings or in the Pulseaudio
  volume control, despite the fact the right device is selected the
  audio goes always to the headphones.

  When I switch the device I see that both tools can see the change. But
  it just doesn't redirect the audio.

  My use case: I want to use headphones while speaking in a messenger
  and would like to keep them plugged in all the time. But I'd like to
  use the speakers for other audio.

  I tried the recent pulseaudio from ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/pulse-testing
  but still same result.

  Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit here on kernel 3.13.0-37-generic.

  pulseaudio:
    Installed: 1:5.0-0ubuntu1~trusty1

  
  Thanks.
