Ugh, what a situation! As a workaround, you can rename the devices on System Settings' Audio page. |
Created attachment 179847 [details] Identical names, except the end of their names. The part "Tiger Lake-LP Smart Sound Technology Audio Controller" of both devices in the attached video prevents me from seeing which one is the Headphone device and which one is the HDMI device. So I'm requesting that if devices' names start identically, abbreviate them until the different part of their names.
