One question just came to my mind: why does a power event count as a new connect or reconnect? Yes, it shouldn't! The physical connection status normally should not change with a power event.
Just my thoughts that might help you to figure out how to solve things.

That means, although I have set another USB sound device plugged in and set as default under sound settings, when an application like Kodi or the system shuts off the HDMI monitor and I reactivate the monitor, the sound is set to HDMI output again and again. That probably has to do with the fix to the reported Bug # 1711101 and definitely not happened at Ubuntu 19.04. I switched to Ubuntu 19.10 two days ago. Setting the USB device as default does not help, even when done by PulseAudio mixer (gui) and removing HDMI output from the alternatives option. Expected behavior: PulseAudio keeps the sound setting to the selected device Actual behavior: PulseAudio changes to HDMI at every HDMI power event Annoying manual workaround: Setting the desired Audio option on the control panel after every HDMI power event again ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.10 Component: pulseaudio Version: 1:13.0-1ubuntu1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1850887/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
