+# Microphone/Speaker LED handling seems like an easy task, but
+# the expectations are different:
+#
+# Main question: Which state should LEDs follow (devices)?
+#
+# Case 1) set LEDs only for internal resources (speaker/microphone)
+# Case 2) set LEDs according the current stream (input/output)
+# Case 3) like case 1, but add analog headphones connected to laptop (analog jack)
+#
+# Discussion for Case 2: It is not possible to handle this in driver
+# (kernel). Usually, the sound server knowns the current stream (which may be routed to
+# bluetooth or a USB device, for example). Additionally, there is a security flaw if the
+# sound server directly controls the LEDs.
+#
+# Discussion for Case 3: Note that we have currently also USB/Bluetooth headphones which
+# do not follow this scenario. In this case, there is no clear LED mapping. It seems
+# that this case is somewhat controversional. Thus, analog headphones may be treated as
+# an external device.
+#
+# Result: For safety, simplicity and understable behaviour, only Case 1 should be
+# followed - LEDs should respond only to the internal (build-in) speaker output and
+# internal (build-in) microphone input in UCM.
