If you install and open the "PulseAudio Volume Control" app, does the same bug appear there?

Please get the output of `pactl list`

Then the output of `pactl get-default-sink`

Then fix the desync

Then the output of `pactl get-default-sink` again

Then the output of `pactl list` again

Would also be great if you could grab a screenshot of PulseAudio Volume Control with all buttons visible.

That does suggest that the problem is actually in pulseaudio. If it was a UI bug only the device should not have changed. Best report this upstream to pulseaudio directly.
Comment 15 Harald Sitter 2024-09-30 09:57:51 UTC
Actually, neon is about to move to pipewire anyway, so this may resolve itself as part of that migration.
