    Computer Defaults to Internal Speakers After Sleep

    Hi All,

    I have a 5.1 setup with my laptop running through a USB sound card. The system is set up to be my media center so I have it sleeping a majority of the time, unfortunately when it comes out of sleep it defaults to the internal speakers and I have to manually go through pulse to change it back to the 5.1. Any way to change this? Thanks in advance

    Dunno how much translates to Ubuntu and Pulse as I use Debian and Alsa, but I had a similar issue. I edited /etc/modprob.d/alsa-base.conf so the sound I wanted as default, stayed default:

    Code:
    # Prevent abnormal drivers from grabbing index 0
options snd-intel8x0m index=0  ### changed from -2 to 0
    I also edited /etc/modprob.d/alsa-base-blacklist.conf so my internal speaker driver was blacklisted:

    Code:
    # Comment this entry in order to load snd-pcsp driver
blacklist snd-pcsp
