[pulseaudio-discuss] How to specify default soundcard?

Hi,

I use two sound-cards (usb and internal), when the external usb soundcard is
connected I would like pulseaudio to output on the external one and use it
as default, otherwise it should use the internal one. Is this possible with
pulseaudio?
I would be really grateful if somebody could point me to documentation
regarding this issue.

KDE's kmix used to support setting a "default soundcard" (however, that
didn't really work), however after I switched to XFCE I don't find any such
options - looks like I have to configure it manually.

Thanks, Clemens
