Public bug reported:
I really hope I am submitting this bug to the right place, but every
time I log in (whether after logout, reboot, etc.) the sound output and
input devices resort to my HDMI cable (monitor) and the mic on my webcam
instead of the devices I last selected.
In previous versions of Ubuntu, if I were to select my speakers as the
output device, they would remain the default until I changed it again,
even after logout/log in. Now, whenever I log in, the sound still comes
out of my speakers, but adjusting the volume does not work properly
until I go into settings > sound > and then reselect my speakers as the
output device. The volume indicator pops up on screen and it shows the
sound going up or down, but it says it is adjusting the sound to my HDMI
cable instead and it has no effect on my desktop speakers.
I really hope that makes sense.
