Hi,

Running PulseAudio with module-hal-detect loaded doesn't detect my USB
headset when I plug it in.

If I start PulseAudio while the headset is plugged in, it shows up as
a device in PulseAudio Manager and I can move streams to it or from
it. If I unplug the headset, it remains in PA's device list. I have to
restart PA (/etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart) for any changes I make
(plugging, unplugging the headset) to take effect.

I also tried everything above with module-detect loaded instead of
module-hal-detect, but the behavior is the same.

Any ideas where to begin troubleshooting this?

Thanks,
Mike
