<pre>Thanks for the explanation, but I *really don't* agree that this new behaviour
is an improvement.
I have attached the output of "pactl list sinks". As you can see, the first
one is merely 'suspended'. It connects to my TV via HDMI. The second one
connects to my PC speakers via analogue headphone jack.
This wasn't a problem for v10.0: it was happy to switch from sink #1 to #0 when
the latter was 'suspended'. Unfortunately, even when the TV is on and the
relevant HDMI input is chosen, v11.x still thinks it's no good!
I'd have thought it'd be the other way around if anything. Shouldn't a HDMI
output be considered superior to an analogue headphone jack?
Regardless, there needs to be a way to override this new behaviour (e.g. via a
"--force" switch).</pre>
