Public bug reported:

In 15.10 (Wily)...

I get to work, plug in my USB hub with my USB headset plugged into it,
go to sound settings.

Headset is listed there. I tell sound settings to switch output to the
headset. It doesn't switch (i.e., when I play a test sound, it's still
coming out of the laptop's speakers).

I unplug the USB headset and plug it back in. Same problem.

I log out and log back in again. Same problem.

To actually fix this problem, I have to run pulseaudio -k and then
pluseaudio --start --log-target=syslog.

I suspect this is related to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1518411 . Is that
possible?
