Alsa reports that there are two headphone jacks, but it's a known limitation in
pulseaudio that if there are two mixer elements with the same name, only the
first one will be used.

Pulseaudio detects the dedicated mic jack. If you don't see it in your audio
configuration application, that may be because you don't have a mic plugged in,
so the application hides the unavailable port.

The headset input is not detected at all, because the alsa mixer doesn't
indicate that such input exists. The kernel driver should be fixed.

The "pactl list" output shows that the headphone output is still detected, but
headphones are not plugged in. Did you have headphones plugged in when you ran
"pactl list" in after_pinset_again?
