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.

- This is because PulseAudio's routing is not port based (enough).
