Seems like it's not always detected the audio device plugged in the headphone jack. It's not showing up in `pacmd list-sinks`. However I'm not sure if this is the same thing what happen before. This seems more like a more common issue were a few people already reported bugs for, which i'm going to look into now.

The sound system is connected via a headphone jack cable and sometimes I use my headphones instead of my sound system. So today it happen again. I couldn't get music playing over my sound system, there was only a small bit of noise, less then when the cable isn't plugged in at all. Anyway eventually I managed to fix it but this is what I tried first: - `sudo alsa force-reload` - `sudo pulseaudio -k` - `pulseaudio -k` - Turned everything on in `alsamixer` - Rebooted my laptop once Most of the time the fix can be done from the GUI of "All Settings > Sound". Sometimes I have to swap between Input back and forth but this time I had to unmute "Alert volume" in the "Sound Effects" tab. Honestly I think there is something wrong with how the program interacts with the user. When the user interacts with the program it is not able to execute tasks as expected. Basically it looks like there is high coupling and/or low cohesion.
