Hi all,
I've acquired a pair of wireless headphones; the type thathas a USB
dongle that plus into amy machine and uses analog FM to communicate
with the headphones.
These JustWorked(tm) under linux, but now I'd like to have audio
(either PulseAudio or ALSA) auto switch to the headphones whenever
they are plugged in.
Is this doable? Any hints?
ALSA can definitely detect the jack insertion.
Not a jack in this case, a USB device that identifies itself as a
USB audio device.
However, it requires a
user-space app that is paying attention to the "switch".
Would this info be available over DBus?
Cheers,
Erik
