When I suggested in 392103 that we enable switch-on-connect by default, you said we couldn't do that because it would break the Phonon KCM (your exact words were "the entire "Audio/Video settings" KCM (phonon) won't work anymore."). That doesn't sound like "it works correctly" to me. The fact that these modules are mutually exclusive, yet used by different KCMs seems like an issue, especially if it imposes technical blockers to changing a default setting, or even starting up that conversation.

Is this an upstream PulseAudio bug, then?
