Audio output switching issues between iMac's built-in speakers and headphones

Insert a 3.5 audio head, and the output automatically switches to headphone mode;
Pull out the 3.5 audio head and the output automatically switches to built-in speaker mode.
Is there a way to implement that in case of inserting an audio header, the output mode can be selected?
I read that someone on the Internet said that it can be solved by using a USB external sound card. Has it ever been useful?

Anonymous9258 Nov 13, 2019I didn't bring headphones, but the system preference-sound-output, can't I change it here? I use a usb sound card, which can switch the output, but I haven't noticed the audio header.

Poster Nov 13, 2019@ Anonymous9258 The settings couldn't be changed as early as five or six years ago. Another method is AppleScript, but I couldn't operate it (maybe I didn't get it right). It seems that it's best to buy an external sound card.
