Public bug reported:
This is a recent bug (last week or so). Fortunately a work around is to use
https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/906/sound-output-device-chooser/
which works. I'm not sure this is the right package to put this bug report in.
I mean the settings with the gear icon in Ubuntu 20.04. See the photo
attached. When you select other options other than the default laptop
speakers, you still get sound through the laptop speakers.
Thanks for all your hard work!
Rob
