            Bug ID: 422698
           Summary: HDMI Audio output device not saved, goes to default.
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.10.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Multi-screen support
          Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
          Reporter: linuxguy...@gmail.com
                CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up KDE to operate on 2 screens.  Primary screen is screen #2, on the
right. Secondary screen is to the left, rotated 90 degrees.  Login is to occur
on the primary screen.  Sound should come out of the primary screen. 

2. Set up sound to use HDMI output.  Use PulseAudio Volume Control to select
HDMI out and the primary screen for output.

OBSERVED RESULT

Half the time there is no sound and one has to go to the sound widget in panel
and select HDMI as the Default Device.  (The Default Device icon is messed up
as well.) 

Every time the computer is rebooted the sound will default back to screen #1. 
The user must open PulseAudio Volume Control and reset the audio to come out of
the primary screen.  Sometimes this happens every time the computer goes to
sleep and/or every time you log out.

Thus every reboot or sleep you have to go in and reset and fiddle with the HDMI
audio settings. 

EXPECTED RESULT

1) The HDMI output device should be retained across reboots, sleep, logouts,
etc. 

2) The selection of HDMI audio as the default should be retained across
reboots, sleep, logouts, etc.
