This is pretty undiscoverable, especially if your headphones are in and you don't notice that the built-in speaker is also making noise. Is there a way around this? For instance, we could unmute headphones by default (and unmute PCM, and simply mute Master or Master Mono when reactivating)." enhancement closed low -- duplicate
