Note that I made the changes you recommended in those files and had used it for a couple weeks, and it seemed to be behaving as expected. However after the update to 20.10, it seems to have reverted the changes and now my sound is broken again, experiencing even *worse* problems with puleaudio 1:13.99.2-1ubuntu1. Now, after resume from sleep, all audio devices except the internal SPDIF are missing, and never re-appear.
This begs a few questions: why is the priority order incorrect in those config files, and why does pule reset it to the wrong values on upgrade? what has changed in the newer pulse release that now it just messes up my sound even worse on 20.10 than it was on 20.04? I'll re-instate the logging and attach a new log soon. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1888598 Title: pulseaudio has is buggy with hdmi audio and sleep/wake Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: on a fresh Ubuntu 20.04 x64 install, I've noticed some troubling bugs with pulseaudio after putting my system to sleep and then waking it up. these bugs aren't present on a fresh boot, only after resuming from sleep: - it forgets which sound output device it's set to, and always reverse to the motherboard's S/PDIF output. - I have two devices connected to my video card, one is a displayport monitor, and one is a home theater receiver via HDMI. it confuses the two, and randomly switches which device it thinks is capable of surround sound. - it sometimes refuses to switch to the correct audio device, and just resets any choice back to the internal S/PDIF, until the system is rebooted. as you can imagine, this a pretty frustrating state of affairs.
