Whenever I remove my headphone, my MacBook pro mid 2012 (macOS Mojave, 10.14.5) defaults to Digital Out — Optical digital-out port"Digital Out — Optical digital-out port" (and the port is usually red"red" (-digital out light), but sometimes it doesn't show it [usually when sound is not playing]) which is not OK since it should be "Internal Speakers — Built-in""Internal Speakers — Built-in".

enter image description here

I've tried these terminal commands and they don't work.

sudo pkill coreaudiod
sudo killall coreaudiod

Are there similar commands to redirect the automatic "Digital Out" setting?

The onlyonly fix I found so far for that bug, is to blow air inside the jack for ~5-10 seconds and then I have access to my speakers again... weird.
