Hi,
Using Linphone 5.2.6 [1] on Ubuntu 22.04 with a Bluetooth headset on a 
laptop. I have switched from the laptop internal audio device to my 
Bluetooth headset in the audio settings of linphone and it works as 
expected.
I now turn of my laptop and headset. I then turn on my laptop again and 
afterwards my Bluetooth headset as well.

# Expected behaviour:
My Bluetooth headset is selected again as audio device in linphone.

# Actual behaviour:
The laptop internal audio device is selected in linphone (whereas Ubuntu 
picks up the Bluetooth headset correctly). Before I can receive or make 
a call, every time I reconnect my headset (often twice a day), I 
manually have to open the linphone audio settings and reselect the 
Bluetooth headset.

# Wish for the future
If I could wish for a even more advanced feature, it would be even 
cooler to be able to manage audio device profiles and to be able to 
prioritize them within linphone. A use case here is having different 
headsets and depending on what device is available, the "best" should be 
automatically selected.

Thanks for your work!
Simon

[1] I know, I'm way ahead of time, as the latest release is only 5.2.3 
according the changelog [2], no idea how I managed that. ;)
