Try the following in Ubuntu LTS 20.04, to clear things out. 1. Create a new gnome user and log in.
2. Build Rhythmbox 3.4.3 from source. This should take 15 mins + 200 MB disk space $ sudo apt-get build-dep rhythmbox $ sudo apt-get install git $ git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/rhythmbox.git $ cd rhythmbox/ $ git checkout tags/v3.4.3 -b v3.4.3 $ ./autogen.sh $ make $ shell/rhythmbox --version $ shell/rhythmbox Note: Here were just building and starting Rhythmbox from source tree. It runs 100% from the tree. We don't do any installation. So, this will not interfere with existing Rhythmbox installed by the system. Just always do this experiment as a new user, so config / data of both git and system Rhythmbox versions remain separate in separate user home dirs. 3. Check if the random sink issue shows up ( It SHOULD in my opinion ) 4. Do step [1] / [2] in Ubuntu 19.10 replacing "3.4.3" with "3.4.4". 5. Check if the random sink issue shows up ( It SHOULD NOT in my opinion ). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1883902 Title: rhythmbox ignores pulseaudio default sink and outputs sound on random device To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/1883902/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
