Bug#981572: pulseaudio: Pulseaudio disabling auto-mute mode

Package: pulseaudio
Version: 14.2-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Recently I installed new updates, including pulseaudio:
2021-01-29 15:55:19 upgrade pulseaudio:i386 14.0-2 14.1-1
2021-01-29 16:08:32 status installed pulseaudio:i386 14.1-1
After these update(s) the internal speaker of the laptop is not going
automatically to mute,
if the headphone is plugged in.
Also the text "headphones" under the speaker symbol ( when changing
volume with
keyboard button), does not disappear when unplugging the headphone.
If I look at alsamixer I can see the auto-mute is disabled.
If I enable auto-mute, the internal speaker is going to mute, as wished.
As soon as I remove the headphone-plug,
auto-mute is immediately disabled again at alsamixer.
The same problem is described at
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=253729 .
Auto-mute remains enabled if i use the suggested workaround
by commenting at etc/pulse/default.pa the cal "load-module
module-udev-detect"
and uncommenting the previous static loads, but this causes a lot of errors,
so it is not a workable solution.
My laptop is a simple DELL D620, without any additional audiocard.
If the internal speakers can not become mute independent of the headphone
it cannot be used anymore at video-conference and at a shared office.
As workaround I now have to use the command:
amixer -c 0 sset "Auto-Mute Mode" Enabled
Problem is not solved by installing pulseaudio 14.2-1 from sid.
