Hi,
Debian 9.0.0 comes with pulseaudio 10.0, so it's not likely that fixes
for the problem are in the wild yet, I figure.
Even when a Debian 9.0.0 box is connected to a HDMI monitor, PulseAudio
Volume Control displays only 3 of its 5 tabs, supressing the vital
Configuration tab, needed for switching audio output to HDMI. Depriving
the user of knowledge of the availability of the Configuration tab, by
burying it under two levels of blind hammering on a tiny inscrutable
icon in the corner is a monstrous disservice to the user, and a rather
weird design decision. Much space is wasted in the width of the 3
displayed tabs, and on many a screen there is at least half a yard of
screen width spare for the other 2 tabs.

Hi Erik,
I don't really understand. Are you talking about pavucontrol when
you are saying "PulseAudio Volume Control"?
As far as I know, pavucontol always displays 5 tabs, the configuration
is one of them and there is no option to suppress any of the tabs.
If this is different in your distribution or you are not talking about
pavucontrol, the pulseaudio mailing list is the wrong place to complain.
You have to go back to the maintainers of your distribution. (Although
I am running Debian unstable and pavucontrol there displays all 5 tabs,
so I understand your complain even less.)
Regards
Georg
