Title:
  Volume display does not update when changing default sink

Status in indicator-sound package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  On my laptop I often have two PulseAudio sinks, the on-board audio
  (alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo) and a Bluetooth speaker
  (bluez_sink.8C_DE_52_2F_AF_F3).  I can choose the default destination
  for sound output using the "Sound" pane of System Settings, and I can
  separately change the volume setting of each sink using the "paman"
  application.  When I adjust the volume using the sound menu, it
  affects the default sink.  However, when I change to a different
  default sink, the sound menu does not update and continues displaying
  the volume for the previously-selected sink.  Only if I change the
  volume setting for one of the sinks (e.g. using paman) does the sound
  menu update to show the new volume level.

  To reproduce:

  Find a system with more than one sound sink.

  Launch paman and open the Properties window for each sink.

  Also open the Sound pane of System Settings.

  Set one sink to maximum volume and one to minumum.

  Switch between outputs using Systems Settings, and note that the sound
  menu does not update to match the different volume settings of the two
  sinks.
