Public bug reported:

My Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop has HDA Intel audio with a STAC9200 codec.
It has speakers and a headphone jack. Previously when the headphone jack
was unplugged sound came from the speakers, and when headphones were
plugged in, sound came only from the headphones. In Ubuntu 22.04, when I
plug in the headphones, sound comes from both the speakers and
headphones.

ALSA has the "Auto-Mute" feature, which mutes the speakers when
headphones are plugged in. The problem is that Pulseaudio disables this
feature. Every time I plug in headphones, I need to again re-enable that
feature using alsamixer to stop sound from speakers.

The problem seems to be this unfixed bug in Pulseaudio:
