Switching default output device inconsistency
This issue got forwarded from Pipewire because it relies on a wrong behavior of gnome-control-center which Pulseaudio can handle with a work-around which is planned to be deleted.
So please fix this issue for more consistency with Pulseaudio and Pipewire.
Version, Distribution, Desktop Environment:
- pipewire 0.3.21-1, Archlinux, GNOME
Description of Problem:
- When I start video or audio in Firefox with multiple tabs, pause them and switch the default audio output device, not all tabs consistently change the output device.
- Also switching the default audio device doesn't visually reconnect anything in Carla (opened with pw-jack).
How Reproducible:
- Using a web browser with multiple tabs, playing multiple different audio sources (or video sources) while switching default audio output device.
Actual Results:
- The inactive tabs seem to keep old audio connections to the last device.
Expected Results:
- The tabs should use the given default device for playing audio if not set specifically different.
