Description Aravind Gopal 2012-09-28 06:07:57 UTC
I am using analog sterio out to hear sound from my Radeon HD 4200 series mother board. I am using 'DVI  out'  to the display(Now HDMI port not used). But The default selection of the Audio hardware setup section of Phonon in System setting is  "RS880 HDMI Audio[....]" for sound card and   "HDMI/DisplayPort" for connector. but even if we change it to "built in audio " and "Analog output" for sound card and connector respectively, On restart it will revert to the default one.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Changed setting
2.Restarted

Actual Results:  
Change reverted to default on restart.

Expected Results:  
System setting should either detect the connected connectors/devices and/or allow custom setting. It should keep the changed setting on restart. If need more user frienliness can ask for a conformation " Your new setting applied, check whether its working by playing music or movie" and provide a 'Save , Revert & default option.
