I reinstall EnOS yesterday on my laptop and found out today that plugging in my headphone does not change the out put device . The device is listed in pavucontrol . But it shows the headphone is unplugged all the time , i.e. if it’s plugged in or not pavucontrol shows it’s unplugged . I can manually switch the output to headphone . Then headphone will work . But when I unplug it the audio is not switched to speakers . I have to do it manually .
System specs
Intel Pentium 4417u
These two screenshots were taken when the headphone was not plugged in
alsamixer
pavucontrol
Plugging in the headphone does not make any difference to these screenshots

Do you by any chance have a line-out option in output devices? I found this and seemed quite like your issue https://www.ghacks.net/2019/08/13/fix-for-no-sound-issue-on-linux-when-using-headphones/

The problem is same but it’s not a solution . He is just sticking with the default output and don’t plan to change the device . That’s not the case with my laptop , I have to use it with headphones and speakers and changing the device manually every time is not a good option
do you have this inside your: /etc/pulse/default.pa ?

It didn’t . So I added them and it doesn’t seem to change anything
Am I missing something
already try to reset pulse for your user?mv ~/.config/pulse ~/.config/old-pulseAuto-Mute Mode is enabled inside alsamixer?

I disabled it and no effect .
Will try this out now !
systemctl --user restart pulseaudio.socket
after moving configs out of the way should be good to go, but a reboot will do also…

Did a reboot but no luck . The problem persists . Along with a new one , there is an Unplugged Headphone listed in input section . Just noticed it now . The problem is not that the device is not recognized . Rather the device is shown as Unplugged when it’s plugged in . It shouldn’t even be there on the list when unplugged , but still is there (as unplugged headphone) and the microphone too .

What is your hardware? inxi -Fxxxa --no-host
could you try while watching journal to plugin the headphone? journalctl -f in a term and then plugin the headphone, and copy paste what it shows.
