Public bug reported:

My earphones are the one coming with Samsung Galaxy S8 (here:
https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/mobile-accessories/phones/samsung-
earphones-tuned-by-akg--gray-eo-ig955bsegus) and on my Ubuntu 18.04
(dual-boot with Windows 10, Secure Boot enabled) I have two issues with
them (possibly should report a new bug for the second one?)

1) Trying to set the volume from my earphones' controls doesn't work, no
modification on the volume, the sound bar on Ubuntu doesn't appear in
order to indicate volume change. I would like to change the master
volume, or whatever my common laptop controls do when I up/down the
volume controls on my earphones, like it happens on Windows 10. Why does
the erroneous behavior of being unable to set volume from my earphones
happen?

2) Every time I boot or reboot my system and leave the earphones on,
without unplugging them, i.e. when Ubuntu boots with the headphone plug
already occupied, I don't get any sound from my headphones, no matter
how much up and down I turn the volume (from my laptop sound controls),
i.e. the sound bar moves up and down and I hear no sound. I have to
unplug and re-plug my earphones and only then does Ubuntu recognize them
and ask me to select "Headset/Headset with mic/Mic". How can I fix it,
so that I don't have to replug every time I boot?
