I'm using Ubuntu 21.04 with an intel tablet and a lenovo usb-c hub that
has an audio adapter: See https://linux-hardware.org/?probe=09f8c72d80/

I never have anything hooked into the audio jack on usb-c hub, yet every
time I plug my tablet into the usb-c hub the sound output switches to
the usb-c hub instead of staying routed to the tablet speakers. I then
have to go either into settings or use a sound output extension to
switch it back to the speakers.

This issue does not happen when using Windows 10 - audio stays routed
through the tablet speakers - my guess is that it goes a step further
and detects whether an audio jack actually has a cable plugged in or
not.

What package handles determining default audio routing for Ubuntu 21.04
/ Gnome 3.38.5? I'd like to file a bug about this / possibly see if I
can help make the defaults work better.
