I'm not sure, but suspect PulseAudio has nothing to do with remembering settings. That's the job of your settings daemon/backend...
Can you please help us to find the right package(s) to assign this bug to? Just open your settings app, and search the list of running processes for which one is *-control-center or similar, and then find which package provides that by running something like: dpkg -S `which YOUR-SETTINGS-APP` ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1748620 Title: PulseAudio can not remember my settings between reboots Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Pulseaudio can not remember my settings between reboots.
