Public bug reported:
On my freshly installed eoan system I have two output devices:
- HDMI/DisplayPort 2 - GK208 ...
- Line Out - Family 17h ...
When I login into the system pulseaudio always select the "wrong"
one (HDMI) and I need to go to gnome-settings/Sound/Output Device
and switch to "line out". This applies to every login/logout not
just reboots.
I would be good if it would remember this choice so that I have
to do it only once.
Or maybe (if that is technically possible)
just output on both output devices by default - this would be
even more user friendly for newbies who will have a hard time
finding the right place to change this (or maybe have UI in the
volume slider to select outputs if there are more than one?
But anyway, my immediate concern is that it should just remember
my choice :)
Please let me know if I can provide more information. Happy to
dig into code if needed but I will need some pointers.
