Public bug reported:

Something strange is happening once in a while, I just boot my laptop,
login like I always do and boot my sound system when ubuntu starts up or
after logging in. The sound system is connected via a headphone jack
cable and sometimes I use my headphones instead of my sound system.

So today it happen again. I couldn't get music playing over my sound
system, there was only a small bit of noise, less then when the cable
isn't plugged in at all. Anyway eventually I managed to fix it but this
is what I tried first:

- `sudo alsa force-reload`
- `sudo pulseaudio -k`
- `pulseaudio -k`
- Turned everything on in `alsamixer`
- Rebooted my laptop once

Most of the time the fix can be done from the GUI of "All Settings >
Sound". Sometimes I have to swap between Input back and forth but this
time I had to unmute "Alert volume" in the "Sound Effects" tab.

Honestly I think there is something wrong with how the program interacts
with the user. When the user interacts with the program it is not able
to execute tasks as expected. Basically it looks like there is high
coupling and/or low cohesion.
