I'll try checking the fix when I get back home from work. If I leave Ubuntu control center open, it does actually change the inputs just fine, and apps get the change, I found that interesting because it is controlling Pulse. On my desktop closing the window seems to stay, but reopening sound preferences looses it. On my laptop, of which this bug report is from, sometimes closing the window looses the preferences also. I've been tackling this since 14.04 came out so I'm glad someones helping right now, and from what I see, definitely on the right track. Thanks.
