Yes. I've been kind of swamped with work since, so I haven't pursued it
further. I still intend to pick it up but it will be at least another
few weeks before I have time to spend on it.

To give a complete picture, fixing this issue depends on two things:

- a proper profile set definition, which is available but won't be
merged upstream until ALSA has been fixed. Lennart has indicated that a
patch might already exist, but I haven't tried to find it yet.

- the Debian packages should ship module-udev-detect instead of (or in
addition to?) the current module-hal-detect. I don't know what further
implications such a switch might have. I'm currently using the PA
packages from Ubuntu, which is already shipping -udev-detect.
