Sorry for not answering sooner, I've been quite busy.
I already spent too much time reproducing the bug under differents OS and
setups.
Gnome does not want to help ? Fine, I switched to more reliable audio
player.

Thanks for the details. I see it was also reported to GNOME (which is nice)
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/rhythmbox/-/issues/1797
They pointed out to a pulseaudio problem though
Could you report it there
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/issues ?

Try the following in Ubuntu LTS 20.04, to clear things out.
1. Create a new gnome user and log in.
2. Build Rhythmbox 3.4.3 from source. This should take 15 mins + 200 MB
disk space
$ sudo apt-get build-dep rhythmbox
$ sudo apt-get install git
$ git clone
What's new : I can reproduce the problem on Ubuntu 20.04 live USB, so
I'm sure the root cause is not a broken config on my side.
To summarize :
Ubuntu 20.04 / Fedora 32.1 are affected. (Ubuntu 19.10 is not)
- Rhythmbox 3.4.4 fully affected (wrong sink at start + output is switched to a
RAOP
crvi : did you use RAOP sink as networks sinks ? I don't know if it
matters, but my 2 networks sinks are both RAOP.
Anyway, I have some more information :
I can totally reproduce the problem with latest Fedora Live USB
(Fedora-WS-Live-32-1-6), so it's not OS specific.
I also tried Ubuntu

Title:
I tried this with 3 audio sinks ( local audio sink + network host 1
audio sink + network host 2 audio sink ), and I don't see any random
sink selection. Rhythmbox always plays in the default selected sink.
This is on Ubuntu 20.04 and Debian Unstable.
Can you gather more info ?

Thanks for the help.
The workaround for paprefs did work for me.
Regarding rhythmbox :
I tried the gst-launch command line test a few times : it always outputs sound
to my default sink, no problem here.

Bugs, which is
Rhythmbox uses ```autoaudiosink``` gstreamer plugin for outputting
audio, which means Rhythmbox outsources the audio sink selection process
to gstreamer. So, test your bug with the following command first.
```
$ gst-launch-1.0 -v -m audiotestsrc ! audioconvert ! audioresample !
autoaudiosink
```
> Regarding this, all is greyed out in "paprefs" for the new user
See https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/paprefs/-/issues/7 for
workaround.

"In 20.04 :
-> Spotify (snap store version 1.1.26.501.gbe11e53b-15) has the same problem
-> others apps I tested (Firefox, Chromium, VLC, Totem) do not have the problem"
In addition, I created a brand new user on my system to reproduce the bug, but
he could not see RAOP sinks. So I can't see if
Thank you for your bug report, is that specific to rhythmbox or do you
get the same issue in e.g totem?
