I'm having the same problem. If there ends up being a fix for this, I will jump on this so fast! I have other line-in headphones I can use, so I can do other things, but it is a pain :/

This issue tracker has been discontinued, so you'd need to go to GitHub
But I believe it has been reported there already, and might even have been resolved in the upcoming 4.1
