Correct - the real solution is module-port-manager.

It's not a regression. Switching to analog speakers when HDMI is unplugged (or
turned off) is an improvement. Staying on analog speakers when HDMI is plugged
in, is to keep existing behaviour.
Also, Gnome has a desire to "implement predictable routing in PulseAudio" (see
<a href="https://wiki.gnome.org/Design/SystemSettings/Sound">https://wiki.gnome.org/Design/SystemSettings/Sound</a> ), and this is a step in
that direction. Although that page lists HDMI above internal speakers,
indicating that we should lower the priority of internal speakers. (Which would
also solve this bug, but I'm not sure whether or not we want to do that by
default anyway.)
<span class="quote">> But here's another idea for a solution:

Isn't that what module-card-restore already does?
<span class="quote">> 2) When a port becomes available, check if the currently active profile on

Sorry, but there's too much left out in the above sentence to be able to tell
which scenarios this will break.</pre>
