[Touch-packages] [Bug 1921766] Re: Output device not remembered after connecting/disconnecting another
So I did look at those options, but disabling them did not provide the experience I was looking for, and required me to do as much or more manual switching of audio devices. To be clear, I don't want to disable the functionality that these options provide. I am happy with the audio switching to hotplug devices (such as my headphones) automatically when they connect, and I'm happy with the audio switching to new ports as well. This bug is with the behavior of switching _back_ to the original device when a hotplug device disconnects. It should remember the original device, or at least allow me to set a default to switch back to, instead of deciding for itself. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1921766 Title: Output device not remembered after connecting/disconnecting another Status in PulseAudio: Unknown Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu 20.10 running pulseaudio version 13.99.2 is my daily driver for development work.
