does not work - this tab does not display headphones. It displays
* Simultaneous output to builtin stereo
* Builtin stereo
- and a few others. Changing priority here does not seem to have effect
on headphones.

To enable the headphones I need the "Audio Hardware Setup" tab/connector
setting - and this one is "forgotten" after every reboot regardless whether
it is done from systemsettings or kmixer.
