Found temporary solution.
When I install pavucontrol, there I am able to switch sound output on
running application (including firefox). But later when I change setup
(turn on or off my TV) then I must do it again this way.
Therefore I am unable to control my sound output using built-in sound
controls in ubuntu (gnome) desktop and only possible way is to try
another applications.
