Title:
Sounds settings lost after reboot
Status in PulseAudio sound server:
Confirmed
Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I recently upgraded from Xubuntu 13.04 to 13:10 (64-bit), and since
then I have no sound when I start my PC, because it's being sent to
the HDMI output (my TV). I want it to go to the Analogue output (my
PC) like it used to on 13.04. I can change it using the pulse-audio
Volume Control program, but my settings are lost after I 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'm not 100% certain this is a pulseaudio bug - that's just my best
guess.
Thanks.
