PulseAudio 11 stopped using "hw:" as a fallback for analog stereo if "front:" doesn't work. This caused a regression on "Toshiba Chromebook 2 (Swanky)", because PulseAudio doesn't any more do automatic mixer adjustments when plugging in headphones. Apparently on this machine "hw:1,0" works fine as a substitute for "front:1,0", but we're not going to revert the change in PulseAudio, so could someone add the "front" definition for this machine in alsa-lib? Unfortunately I'm not proficient enough in the alsa-lib configuration system to make a patch myself.
