[Bug 1799838] [NEW] Pulse Audio Volume Control defaults to wrong hardware profile and will not save under configuration section after upgrading to Ubuntu 18.10

 

Public bug reported:

Pulse Audio Volume Control defaults to the wrong hardware profile and
will not save the selected hardware profile under the configuration
section after upgrading from Ubuntu 18.04 to 18.10.

I have HDMI out from my GPU to my desktop monitor "GP104 High Definition
Audio Controller" and "Built-in Audio" from my on-board audio.

I typically wish to use my built-in audio which should send output to my
headphones.  The problem is that on the Configuration page the "Built-in
Audio" option always defaults to "Digital Stereo IEC958 Output" when I
need it to use "Analog Stereo Duplex (unplugged)".

Note:  It is not actually unplugged.

I can select the analog stereo profile, but it will not save
permanently.  Every time I reboot may machine it resets to "Digital
Stereo IEC958 Output".

Note:  I've also tried to use the "Set as fallback" button without
success.  This did not happen with 18.04.
