 (This is on PA 0.9.21 on Fedora, but latest git seems to have the same
 problem.)

 I have an Intel board that can output audio over HDMI and DP.  aplay -l

 Device 7 is audio over DP (determined experimentally).  PulseAudio only
 shows "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" which outputs over the analog output
 on the back of the motherboard.

 If I add:

 load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:0,7 sink_name=DP
 set-default-sink DP
 update-sink-proplist DP device.description="DisplayPort"

 to default.pa, everything works.  Surely this should work automatically,
 though.

 Logs attached.

 Filed under module-detect because I don't know whether module-detect or
 module-alsa-sink is responsible.
