I changed my screen resolution from 2560x1440 to 1024x768 to test an
application, and my audio sink was switched from headphone output to the
speakers in my monitor for all applications playing sound.

I can repeatedly cause the resolution down-scaling to change my audio
sink from "Built-in Audio Analog Stereo" to "GP104 High Definition Audio
Controller Digital Stereo (HDMI 2)". As the sound can be carried through
HDMI, maybe something with the resolution change is causing the
device/sink to be re-detected and my system defaults to it. This does
not appear to be happening when I up-scale my resolution e.g. going from
1024x768 to 2560x1440.

This sounds (pun intended) more like a problem with Pulseaudio as display 
settings is mostly just a xrandr frontend.
Try changing the resolution with xrandr from terminal, e.g. xrandr --output 
HDMI-0 --mode 1024x768

Had to guess around the HDMI-# but:

xrandr --output HDMI-1 --mode 1024x768

had the same effect.  So it seems this is PulseAudio not remembering the
previously used sink when the output device disappears/reappears?

Possibly, but I also noticed that restarting xfce4-panel sometimes
changes the output from HDMI to the onboard sound card. Do you have
pulseaudio-plugin on your panel? If so, try removing it to see if there
is any difference.

Yes, removing the pulseaudio-plugin from my panel prevented the switch
of sound sinks when the resolution changed. :)
