Public bug reported: Every time that I unplug my headphones from my front plug and that I re- plug them, the system doesn't detect that they've been re-plugged. My solution so far has been to kill the pulseaudio process and to force alsa to reload manually in order to have my headphones detected back again. One other option is to reboot the system. When the headphones are not working, they do not show up in the sound settings. I've had this bug on Ubuntu 21.10, Ubuntu 22.04 and on Fedora 35. On Windows 10 and AlmaLinux 8.5, it works perfectly, so it is not a hardware issue.
