The combination of on-board sound hardware, and a more full-featured sound card, isn't that unusual. It's not in the same "only a gearhead" category as, say, having two distinct (non-SLI) video cards. (And even then there's on-board video...)
Hundredpapercuts is looking very apropos. (Oh, and Arie: I think one way to do what you're after is to put a shell-script-let in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/, somewhere after 70pulseaudio, that invokes "pacmd set-default-sink ..." as appropriate based on the value of DISPLAY. Don't bother with pavucontrol(1), as it has no script- compatible interface.) -- The user cannot select sound card https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/229137 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
