Comment(by skierpage):

 Thanks for responding!  pavucontrol is not on the Kubuntu CD.  Ideally
 System Settings > Multimedia > Phonon > preferred output dialog would let
 me right-click to rename outputs, which is another Launchpad bug to file.
 I updated bug #723 with my `lspci -vvv` info, hope it helps.

 I don't know why my fiddling in pacmd made Phonon and/or PulseAudio lose
 track of names and/or unload module-device-manager, if I can reproduce
 I'll file a Launchpad bug.

 You must be the Tolstoy who penned "KDE + PulseAudio != Sucks"; it sounds
 like PulseAudio and KDE work better in other distributions than Kubuntu,
 even though 10.10 made Phonon > Xine > PulseAudio the default. I don't
 know whether to upgrade to 10.10 or switch distros.
