# Problem
In Ubuntu 24, when I load up pipewire by default I have
```
ls $HOME/.local/state/wireplumber
restore-stream
```
with the following info
```
(base) ➜ Downloads cat $HOME/.local/state/wireplumber/restore-stream
[restore-stream]
Audio/Sink:node.name:alsa_output.usb-Roland_STUDIO-CAPTURE_STCP84a040b838d820ac080e12c0603e-01.multichannel-output:channelMap=AUX0;AUX1;AUX2;AUX3;AUX4;AUX5;AUX6;AUX7;AUX8;AUX9;

Output/Audio:media.role:Movie:volume=1.0
```
Audio is playing out of my "multichannel device".
When I got to Gnome settings and select "Analog Input - STUDIO CAPTURE",
the output device disappears and the audio starts to come out of my HDMI
monitor instead.
In the pipewire folder there is now the following:
```
ls $HOME/.local/state/wireplumber
default-nodes default-profile restore-stream
```
```
(base) ➜ Downloads cat $HOME/.local/state/wireplumber/default-nodes
[default-nodes]

```

# Expectations
I would expect my device input to be selectable without deleting the
Output device, disabling my audio.
