[Impact] Users plug a headset or microphone to the front mic jack, but the system can't detect the plug and will not set the mic to be the active input device. [Fix] Backport a upstream patch, this will change the front mic jack's name from Front Mic to Mic, then the pulseaudio could handle the plug/unplug. [Test] Plug a headset to the front mic jack, open the gnome-sound-setting, the front mic is the active input device, use this device to record sound, it could record the sound successfully. [Where problems could occur] It could make the other mic can't be detected, but this possibility is very low and I alreaed tested all audio jacks on that machine, all worked well as before.
