You could temporarily remove the module-switch-on-connect from the /etc/pulse/default.pa, reboot and redo the test.
To check if switch-on-connect is loaded or not, run "pactl list modules | grep connect" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to alsa-driver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1873104 Title: Defaults to USB audio after every reboot Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I manually set my audio output to the Line Out. Every reboot this settings is lost and the system defaults back to the USB output. I have several other distros to test - Ubuntu and its flavors are the only ones that have this problem. Something changed in 19.04 or 19.10 that broke this, and it continues to be an issue in 20.04.
