Public bug reported: When switching from HDMI audio to internal speakers, the sound stops working altogether. The only way to prevent this is to enter the settings while still connected to HDMI and select "Speakers - Built in audio" as the output. Disconnecting from HDMI without doing this stops any audio playing through internal speakers or headphones (including the speaker test in settings). It was expected that disconnecting a HDMI output would automatically change the sound output to internal speakers. Attempting to click "Speakers - Built in audio" when disconnected from HDMI has no effect, the only way to remedy this is to reconnect the device to HDMI and select the above output. This means if the device is removed from HDMI and taken to another location, no sound can be used until a HDMI output can be found and connected. Rebooting has mixed effects, on one occasion a reboot restored the sound, however on all others it does not. The test tones DID play during the debug process however this is the only sounds I can get to play. The version of Ubuntu is 18.04 LTS.
