I am also affected. I have a monitor with audio output via HDMI/DP connected to my Ubuntu 20.04 system. After reboot, default sink is set back to other (USB audio) device automatically. Have to manually switch it back to the HDMI/DP device in the settings manually. Editing /etc/pulse/default.pa in any way (even the proposed one by vanvugt) has no effect/is ignored at restart.
