Public bug reported: 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.
Example: you connect a HDMI cable to the television, but then you must manually choose the HDMI sound option; it does not get selected automatically. Often times e.g. when the HDMI cable is disconnected, the user must then manually click on the "speakers" or "line out" setting - EVEN IF IT'S ALREADY SELECTED, it must be clicked on again for the sound to work through the computer's speakers. ** Affects: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1707611 Title: Sound does not automatically play on new audio device To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1707611/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
