I used a "live" version of 17.10 Please find out if those fixes can be included in Ubuntu - I'm willing to test them. If these fixes work, please ask to have them backported to 16.04, because it's a LTS release and I already have 16.04 installed on 4 computers. It is also said that LTS versions offer better stability etc. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1707611 Title: Sound does not automatically play on new audio device Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When connecting a HDMI cable or other audio device, the user must manually click on the "sound volume" in the top-right and switch to the newly connected device.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1707611] Re: Sound does not automatically play on new audio device
I am now also reminded of this "feature", which was a patch in 16.04 and seems to be an upstreamed feature in 17.10: https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio- dev/pulseaudio/tree/debian/patches/0100-switch-on-port-available-Switch- from-HDMI-to-analog-.patch?h=ubuntu-xenial Not sure if it's related. That module "switch-on-port-available" is definitely one that Ubuntu uses but is not mentioned in the documentation: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/User/Modules/ So I'm not yet sure what it's meant to do. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 1702794 Automatically switch audio devices on connection -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1707611 Title: Sound does not automatically play on new audio device Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When connecting a HDMI cable or other audio device, the user must manually click on the "sound volume" in the top-right and switch to the newly connected device.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1702794 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1702794 I tried the image of 17.10 (checked its sha256sum after download, it matched) and tested the 17.10 live USB using "test disc for defects" and no errors found. I connected the HDMI cable to the TV, but I still had to manually switch the sound from the laptop speakers to the HDMI output. This bug appears NOT to be fixed.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1702794 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1702794 The fix only exists in Ubuntu 17.10 right now. Since it's a "feature" more than a bugfix (according to PulseAudio developers) it might not get backported to 16.04 at all. If you are committed though, and have some basic Unix skills, then you can apply the fix from bug 1702794 on your own system.
