After the 12.04 Update my HDMI audio stops working anytime I turn off or on,  
my 2nd monitor(plasma TV)
System Settings>Sound - Output
HDMI audio disappears from the list when monitor is turned off or on and does 
not reappear.

see http://askubuntu.com/questions/133575/hdmi-audio-stops-after-tv-
turned-off/139265#139265

I'm guessing it has something to do with sink detection and ATI video

The only info I've found is after running pactl list

        pcm


I checked before and after. The only difference is
hdmi-output-0: HDMI / DisplayPort (priority: 5900, not available)

Where "not available" is the only change I found.
Removing cable from HDMI socket and plugging in again, restores audio.
Logging in and out again restores audio.
