Have you tried anything to diagnose this?

Like setting your volume to some value other than 1% and then plugging in your headphone?

Or determining if other distributions that this does, or doesn't happen?

Maybe the PA folks (of the Debian folks) are trying to protect the hearing of people who accidently plug in their headphones with the volume cranked to 100%.

(Just a thought...)

that's what I am thinking, anti-blowURearsOutProtection.

You might want to look into pa and see if you can get a default volume setting for your home/.pa/config (path is not a real path).
