If you have only one sink you want to use, you can remove module-switch-on-connect from the configuration and set the default sink once and it will be remembered. I still like automatic switching to Bluetooth headphones and monitor HDMI sinks. I think that disqualifies me from one default sink strategy. ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss

Why I even started digging into this was: every time I plug into my USB-C docks, their internal USB Audio soundcards become the default sinks. Except I don't have anything connected to the dock audio connectors, which means I would like to have Pulseaudio avoid switching to it. It still looks like the feshly minted module-switch-on-connect blacklist argument might be the thing to aim for? I'm not finding any other obvious way to achieve ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss

Tyvm. It is unclear why one should prefer one over the other, in both directions, what's the specific example use case. Can, or should, or shouldn't they be loaded simultaneously?
