Just a little clarification to this so you don't think we loose all  
usefulness of doing stuff automatically when a headset connects to  
us: The audio service sends (D-Bus) signals when devices connect and  
disconnect and the plan is to also integrate with HAL (a patch is  
already in the works) to provide a object which HAL aware  
applications (e.g. pulseaudio) could automatically use. This way the  
applications or a sound server can automatically recognize the  
connected headset and switch their audio routing accordingly.
