> Output of "pulseaudio -vvv" after killing pulseaudio, wrong profile is active

After looking at this log, I think I found it, but I'm not really sure how to
fix it yet.

There is some special code that should prevent switching from analog to HDMI:

    /* Try not to switch to HDMI sinks from analog when HDMI is becoming
available */
    PA_IDXSET_FOREACH(sink, profile->card->sinks, idx) {
        if (!sink->active_port)
            continue;

        if (sink->active_port->available != PA_AVAILABLE_NO)
            return false;
    }


but it has stopped working on startup. The reason is this commit:

    alsa: Initialize ports before sinks/sources

...this causes the current profile not to have any sinks, so the code above
never returns false like it should.
