Just to add a reminder on behalf of a11y: this not-out-of-the-box thing is specifically bad for people that *need* sound to be able to navigate their computer. They usually are not able to recover without sighted help because the tools to do it also fail to speak to them. I don't know if it exists or is feasible, but it would be great to have an as-fail-safe-as-reasonable-possible PulseAudio configuration reset option that can be promoted on the accessibility Wiki [1].
