Title:
Input device is not saved
Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: pulseaudio
Symptoms: In Sound Preferences -> Input I see "Internal Audio Analog
Stereo" and "QuickCam Pro 5000 Analog Mono". Only the QuickCam
captures input from an actual microphone, so I would like to use it,
and it only. However, every time I reboot Pulseaudio somehow decides
to use the "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" instead of my selected
default.
How to reproduce:
1. Select "QuickCam Pro 5000 Analog Mono" as the device for sound input in
the Sound Preferences window.
2. Reboot and log in again
What happens: "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" is selected as the
Pulseaudio sound input device.
What should happen: "QuickCam Pro 5000 Analog Mono" should still be
selected as the Pulseaudio sound input device.
100% reproducible.
Possible cause: Could it be that Pulseaudio starts before the webcam
is initialized, so it shifts to "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" as a
fallback on startup?
Workaround: Select "QuickCam Pro 5000 Analog Mono" as the device for
sound input in the Sound Preferences window after every reboot.
Simple fix: Some way to disable the selection of individual devices,
so they will not be used.
Good fix: Save the selected device, and select that if it ever becomes
available during a GNOME session.
Better fix: Mix all input sources, and allow the user to disable those
they don't want to capture from.
Additional tweak: Monitor all input devices, and if there is a
"better" input source, suggest to the user to change to it. "Better"
could for example mean that it captures more input of a moderate
level, such as 5-95%.
