Public bug reported: In case one card has only unavailable ports, it might be still be selected as default, even though there are available ports on other cards.
E g, on a HTPC which have only Headphone and HDMI outputs, and these two outputs are on separate cards, the headphone port might be selected even if the HDMI port is available and the headphone port is not. Probably PulseAudio's routing system needs to be rewritten to be more port based to fix this issue. ** Affects: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: In case one card has only unavailable ports, it might be still be selected as default, even though there are available ports on other cards.
