Public bug reported:

I have following audio set up on my desktop pc:
A 4.1 system at the back connectors
A headset at the front connectors (mic muted via switch on the cable)
A Logitech C270 web cam which acts as an USB audio input device

For the most part, i want my input source to be the web cam and not the 
headset's mic at the front mic jack. So i select it in the audio configuration. 
It works fine until i reboot my machine.
At that point the selected input device is switched back to the Internal Audio 
with the front jack as source.

This is very annoying and inconsistent behavior, because the system
should remember which device i selected and should keep it as default
until i select another one or the selected one is not available any
more.

If you need any furter information, i'm happy to provide anything you
need.
