Description cj.wijtmans 2015-07-16 21:56:48 UTC
First of all usb audio devices are not automatically preferenced which is an annoyance.
So i have to put the preference higher for the usb device.
Then when i unplug my usb audio device its not sending the output to the next device with lower pereference

Reproducible: Always

This also happens for HDMI device. When HDMI cable is unplugged, the output does not go automatically to the laptop speakers.

Also, after changing the device priority, i have to set manually the master channel in kmix, really annoying...

Processor: Intel core i5-4200U

Here is some more detailed description about changing the master channel. There are two scenarios:
 - [ GOOD behaviour ] HDMI plugged, analog device is top priority: when i change the priority from analog to hdmi, the master channel changes. 
 - [ BAD behaviour     ] HDMI unplugged, hdmi device is top priority: when i change the priority from hdmi to analog, the master channel remains hdmi, i have to change it to analog manually using kmix.
