            Bug ID: 98401
           Summary: USB headset sporadically not detected
           Product: PulseAudio
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: misc
          Assignee: pulseaudio-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Since a few version of PulseAudio (at least since 7.0), I observe the
following:

I unplug my USB headset from one port and plug it into another. This usually
works, until at some point, the USB headset is simply not detected by
PulseAudio anymore. I can unplug it and plug it in again. The USB headset is
simply ignored, regardless how often I unplug and plug it in again. It shows up
in dmesg and is listed as an ALSA device.

The problem is then resolved by killing the pulse audio daemon and restarting
it again, that is I do the following:
- pulseaudio --kill
- pulseaudio --start

Notice that I do not unplug the USB headset while restarting PulseAudio. The
previously ignored USB headset is recognized just fine by the restarted daemon.
