My default audio is being sent to my HDMI output instead of my Analog output. This change happened after upgrading from Xubuntu 13.04 to 13:10 (64-bit). If I use Pavucontrol to change my settings, they are lost after I reboot. So there are 2 problems: 1. My default uses the HDMI instead of the Analog output. 2. Changing the above doesn't persist after a reboot. The pulse-audio Volume Control doesn't have my Analogue Output as a valid option in the Output Devices tab; it appears only after I select Analogue Stereo within the Configuration tab. I then choose it as my "fallback" device (which I think means default device?), but my changes are not saved between reboots. After changing the output device to Analogue Stereo using the Configuration tab, I then have to change the output of the individual program using the Playback tab, since it uses the current default (HDMI). I've tried setting my default audio device using pacmd, but it hasn't helped: my Analogue device does show up as the active sink when I run pacmd list-sinks, but it's not the selected device within the Volume Control (in the Configuration tab) so I don't get any sound unless I manually change it using the GUI. Here's the output of some pactl commands after I start my PC - note that the Analog Stereo source is missing: $ pactl list sources short 0 alsa_input.usb-046d_08b2-01-U0x46d0x8b2.analog-mono module-alsa-card.c s16le 1ch 44100Hz SUSPENDED 1 alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.hdmi-stereo.monitor module-alsa-card.c s16le 2ch 44100Hz SUSPENDED $ pactl list sinks short 0 alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.hdmi-stereo module-alsa-card.c s16le 2ch 44100Hz SUSPENDED After I open the pulse-audio Volume Control and select the "Analog Stereo" item from the Configuration tab, running the same commands again gives: $ pactl list sources short 0 alsa_input.usb-046d_08b2-01-U0x46d0x8b2.analog-mono module-alsa-card.c s16le 1ch 44100Hz IDLE 1 alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.hdmi-stereo.monitor module-alsa-card.c s16le 2ch 44100Hz IDLE 2 alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo.monitor module-alsa-card.c s16le 2ch 44100Hz IDLE $ pactl list sinks short 0 alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.hdmi-stereo module-alsa-card.c s16le 2ch 44100Hz IDLE 1 alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo module-alsa-card.c s16le 2ch 44100Hz IDLE The Analogue Stereo source is present and I can hear sound through my PC's speakers. But when I reboot my PC these settings are lost, and I have to do this over again. I wouldn't mind so much if I could fix this from the command line, but I haven't found a way to do that. I originally raised this bug on Ubuntu's Launchpad, so you might find some useful information from other users there: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1256511
do you mean the module-switch-on-port-available change the default sink or pulseaudio did not remember your default setting after reboot ?
(In reply to comment #1) > do you mean the module-switch-on-port-available change the default sink or > pulseaudio did not remember your default setting after reboot ? Both (I think). The default sink changed after the upgrade, and when I changed it back using the pulse-audio Volume Control the new settings were lost after I rebooted.
Default sink name: alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.hdmi-stereo Default source name: alsa_input.usb-046d_08b2-01-U0x46d0x8b2.analog-mono post output of pactl list sinks do the state of your analog outputs are available and higher priority than your hdmi ?

post output of xrandr --verbose xrandr --help seem have option to enable HDMI video but disable HDMI audio
module-switch-on-port-available should not automatically change the card profile from analog to hdmi, and when you switch the profile with pavucontrol, that choice should be remembered... I'd like to see PulseAudio logs. Could you do this: 1) Disable autospawning: echo autospawn = no >> ~/.config/pulse/client.conf 2) Stop pulseaudio: killall pulseaudio 3) Start pulseaudio in a terminal: pulseaudio -vvv 4) Set the card profile: pactl set-card-profile alsa_card.pci-0000_00_1b.0 output:analog-stereo 5) Stop pulseaudio with Ctrl-C and save the log output. 6) Start pulseaudio again: pulseaudio -vvv 7) Check the active card profile: pactl list cards 8) Stop pulseaudio with Ctrl-C and save the log output. 9) Attach the logs from steps 5 and 8 and the pactl output from step 7 to this bug.

Ok, so module-card-restore claims to be selecting the analog profile when the card is created, but actually the hdmi profile gets selected. It might be that module-switch-on-port-available is overriding the profile choice made by module-card-restore. I believe that's not supposed to happen, so that's the first bug. Another very weird bug is that when the analog profile is activated via pactl, the hdmi sink doesn't get removed. This was actually visible already in your initial bug description, but I didn't notice that. I really would like to get these issues fixed by the time 6.0 is released, so I'll make this a release blocker, but I'm afraid it will take a while before I have time to properly start working on this bug.

Created attachment 96337 [details] Output of "pulseaudio -vvv" after killing pulseaudio, wrong profile is active
Created attachment 96338 [details] Output of "pulseaudio -vvv" after changing the audio profile to analog and restarting pulseaudio Hi, I have exactly the same bug. The pulseaudio settings always fall back to a HDMI-only profile after reboot, no matter which profile/audio output I choose using pavucontrol or the KDE audio settings. I have a Dell U2711 monitor, connected via a DisplayPort cable (which supports audio). This monitor has a sound output terminal, which I don't use and don't want to use. To get my audio back, after every reboot I have to change back the card profile to analog audio using pavucontrol or: pactl set-card-profile alsa_card.pci-0000_00_1b.0 output:analog-stereo (and then change back the audio sink to the analog port if necessary, using e.g.: pactl move-sink-input 6 alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo). I have attached the output of "pactl list", as well as the output of "pulseaudio -vvv" before and after changing the card profile as requested by Tanu Kaskinen in Commen6 #6. Hope this helps.
(In reply to comment #23) > Created attachment 96337 [details] > Output of "pulseaudio -vvv" after killing pulseaudio, wrong profile is active After looking at this log, I think I found it, but I'm not really sure how to fix it yet. There is some special code that should prevent switching from analog to HDMI: /* Try not to switch to HDMI sinks from analog when HDMI is becoming available */ PA_IDXSET_FOREACH(sink, profile->card->sinks, idx) { if (!sink->active_port) continue; if (sink->active_port->available != PA_AVAILABLE_NO) return false; } but it has stopped working on startup. The reason is this commit: commit 0b83787d4e844f47affbc903d97b0ca69e234570 Author: David Henningsson <david.henningsson@canonical.com> Date: Tue Apr 16 15:17:37 2013 +0200 alsa: Initialize ports before sinks/sources ...this causes the current profile not to have any sinks, so the code above never returns false like it should.
Okay, I wrote a patch, but haven't tested it myself, anybody who wants to test it? http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2014-March/020294.html
@David: Many thanks for your inivestigation and the patch! Just now, I compiled pulseaudio 4.0 with your patch applied: _Yes_, indeed this fixes the problem for me: The analog profile stays activated after reboot. Would be nice if someone else could confirm this. Best wishes.
I've now committed the patch to PulseAudio git - thanks for testing!
