Audio switching board without a separate button?

There's a lot of these available:

But I'm looking for something different.

What I need is audio to go to one output port, unless an audio jack is plugged to the other output port. So I need one input and two output ports, and no extra button.

My guess is an integrated circuit can detect when output port 2 is plugged into and disconnect port 1 with a relay or similar, or the physical switch button can be at the very end of the audio jack port and be physically pressed by the audio jack itself when plugged.

Do either of these exist?

Hello
Take some time and take a search engine of your choice and ask the WWW for "analog switch +ic".
Have a nice day and enjoy coding in C++.

You can turn the module around and count the inputs as output, the output as input, and remove the button. I would then reroute the button connections and add components at freed up space for the switching.

The make some of those ports with internal switches that do the switching passively. Google 1/8 Inch Female Stereo TRS Balanced Socket with Switch - Google Search

If you plug in headphones to some radios, they disconnect the connections going to the speakers by using these stereo switch jacks.
