Description ebfe 2015-02-17 23:41:51 UTC 
It would be nice to have devctl/devd notifications when headphones are connected/disconnected.

E.g.,
cat /var/run/devd.pipe
!system=SND_HDA subsystem=headphones type=connection state=disconnected
!system=SND_HDA subsystem=headphones type=connection state=connected

So, with some devd.conf-magic one could easily preserve and restore mixer (or hw.snd.default_unit) settings.

Maybe, something like this:
