Public bug reported:

I have two monitors hooked up to an AMD RX570 via displayport.  In the
sound settings they appear as "Ellesmere HDMI Audio [Radeon RX
470/480/560/570/580/590]" and Ubuntu 19.10 selected one of them as the
output device by default.  My speakers are connected to a green mini-
jack line out jack on the motherboard.  Switching to line out gives me
sound, and I have no other issues.

Originally, I had upgraded to the beta from the command line in 19.04.
I had not experienced this issue in 19.04, but upon first booting into
19.10, I had to switch output device back to line out.  A fresh install
of the beta iso gave the same result (one of my monitors connected to my
video card was selected by default).  Note that my monitors are Dell
U2415s but they do have line out jacks.
