Just the subset you have installed right now need downgrading:

Title:
  No audio on vlc or videos sound or video files

Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Up until a few weeks ago there was no problem with playing sound from mp3 
files. I have a pair of usb speakers. Audio plays Ok on them for video clips 
using Chrome (e.g. from BBC website). Using vlc 2.2.2 (from Ubuntu repos), 
neither a CD nor DVD (video is Ok) nor mp3 file plays audio. mp3 files play Ok 
using Rhythmbox. I've also tried vlc 3.0 with no success.
  Interestingly, the standard Videos app (Totem?) also doesn't play sound on 
these speakers either of an mp4 file (downloaded from YouTube, though it plays 
Ok on YouTube website using Chrome) or a DVD. Clemenetine plays mp3 files Ok. I 
first reported this as bug 1752267 as I thought that the problem was with vlc. 
On that bug, it was suggested that the problem is with Pulseaudio.
  Just now, I've tried to play sound through my monitor's built in speakers 
connected by hdmi (though the monitor displays Ok) with no success even though 
the built-in speakers play sound using pavucontrol when testing is invoked.
