This is still a problem that exists. I have a setup on a laptop where I have a USB soundcard as well as the internal one. I have set it up where the USB is the default sound card. What I have noticed is the following:
IF I DO NOT MANUALLY TURN OFF INTERNAL SOUND CARD USING PULSE AUDIO VOLUME CONTROL 1. Volume settings are "forgotten" (goes to mute) 2. It defaults into the internal speakers, turning off my 5.1 unless I get out of my media software and manually go set it back IF I HAVE MANUALLY TURNED OFF THE INTERNAL SPEAKERS USING PULSE AUDIO VOLUME CONTROL 1. The USB is defaulted but 2. The speakers are muted, again I have to leave my media software to manually set this back up 3. When I unmute the speakers they are low, I typically leave the speakers at 150% and use the media software to lower volume, this way I can use my remote inside of the media center, this becomes even more of an issue as the highest I can go using my remote (to turn up system volume outside of the media software) is 100%, so I have to get up and go into the settings and manually crank the volume up to 150% again (with my rear speakers being slightly lower) This brings up another issue which is I don't understand why/how you can have max output at 150%, the max of anything is 100%, it doesn't make sense to have "secret higher volume" that you can't get to by raising the volume with media controls but instead have to manually go into settings to crank it up. Pulse has made it a long ways in the last year or so but there is still some work to be done. Appreciate all the hard work and look forward to the next release -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/409322 Title: Pulseaudio forgets default output devices on suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/409322/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
