This is from PA wiki: http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/DefaultDevice Which seems to point "pavucontrol", as well as this other site: How do I switch to another audio output sink in XFCE? http://askubuntu.com/questions/107277/how-do-i-switch-to-another-audio-output-sink-in-xfce I wonder if there's not really another way to get the job done without having to install a bunch of extra GNOME dependency files, maybe the manual way can have the same effect, though not that easy nor convenient.
