USB Microphone over USB switch

I run an USB Microphone over a USB switch (together with Mouse and Keyboard) on multiple Computers.



When i switch back from my other Computer, my Microphone is re-activated by Linux, but TeamSpeak cannot reactivate it or still thinks it is broken/not available. I have to change the "Capture Device" configuration in Teamspeak from "Default" to my USB Microphone or the other way around to make it work again.



In an older Ubuntu installation i somehow solved this with the help of Google so that the USB Microphone always appeared active (even though it was unplugged), but i cannot for the live of me find this fix again.
