@jaeezzy, that's a good idea. Will come up with logical ways to handle that one
I hacked a bit on the headphoned code adding another watch for the file /sys/devices/platform/nokia-av/detect but it doesn't detect any change

Then I've tried with inotifywait for both files /sys/devices/platform/nokia-av/detect and /sys/devices/platform/gpio-switch/headphone/state
I've been surprised to see that a change is detected only for the latter. So I think there's no other way than polling the file.
