Title: Rhythembox sink is hidden by normal user interface Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu 14.04 64bit This might be a situation that doesn't happen a lot but... My computer is currently on a hard drive and is booting on different computers. Thus the audio hardware changes between boots and this might have confused pulseaudio regarding rythembox. Symptoms: * Walltop: All sound works, no issue. Internal Intel audio only * Laptop: Sound works, tests work, gstreamer (Totem) plays sound, rythembox fails to play any sound. Internal intel audio. Investigation: Install pavucontrol and notice sink for rythembox is set to HDMI output, even though hdmi output is a) not enabled and b) not available in the regular volume/sound settings user interface. I set the audio sink to the right hardware interface and sound played without issue. But, this is a user interface issue, because there was a setting which stopped sound from being played (or played it to the wrong sink potentionally) but for which the sound control pannel failed to either notice, notify or allow to be changed. Pulseaudio also failed, because it allowed rythembox to fallback to an application level hardware sink which was not in use. The walltop doesn't have hdmi, so I think it just fell back to another hardware sink after failing to lock onto hdmi.
