Public bug reported: The Sound Settings dialog in Unity allows to switch between various audio outputs.
If HDMI is selected and the cable removed the dialog shows that Speakers are selected. But there is no audio. To actually output audio to speakers one needs to click some other output ("Simultaneous output ...") and then again on Speakers. The expected behaviour would be to actually play audio on the speakers without the need to switch forth and back. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1712427 Title: Audio output improperly switches to Speakers when HDMI removed Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The Sound Settings dialog in Unity allows to switch between various audio outputs.
