USB and HDMI (on a typical PC) are handled by ALSA and thus 
module-udev-detect. USB headsets are autodetected in the sense that 
cards show up and disappear, whereas HDMI codecs are always present (and 
you need my jack detection patches in order to detect if there's a 
monitor connected or not).

Never heard of sending audio to a "Wi-Fi Display", what protocol does 
that typically speak? RTP?
