Public bug reported:
This is present in Ubuntu 18.04, 18.10, 19.04, and 19.10 daily build. It
was not present in Ubuntu 16.04.
I have a USB microphone which also appears to pulse as a speaker. Pulse
keeps picking it as the default audio device. I can switch audio devices
to my analog line out, which works as expected until I reboot.
After reboot, my audio device switches back to the USB "speaker", and
Gnome shell / Gnome settings volume control adjusts the USB speaker
volume. Despite seeing the USB device as the current output device, I
still hear sound from my line-out.
In the interest of narrowing down this bug, I have found that disabling
"module-switch-on-connect" fixes the problem (my line-out stays as the
default audio device and I hear sound).
