Upstream has generally recommended against loading it by default, claiming the
default sink should only be changed on user interaction.
It also kicks out possible role-based routing (i e, phone call on a USB headset
and music on speakers).
That said, I do recognise that it solves a problem for you, I'm just not
that sure of whether or not it also causes problems for others.

Title:
module-switch-on-connect should be on by default
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
Opinion
Bug description:
bug #472697 claims that a particular device switched automatically
even without module-switch-on-connect loaded. I have a Blue Snowball
microphone, and it does not auto-switch unless I have module-switch-
on-connect added.
I believe my default.pa was attached to this bug by apport, but I've
used the back button a couple of times so it's possible that side-
channel got dropped. All I've done is add `load-module module-switch-
on-connect` to the thing.
