Bug Description
Whenever I reboot anew, pulseaudio has forgotten the correct audio port which I have set using the kde pulseaudio tool.
I use line out, but it defaults to headphones, which is incorrect for my current setup. I expect it to remember that I wanted line out every time.
Once selected, everything runs fine for that session, but it doesn't get saved and defaults back to the wrong output every time.
Guessing this is pulseaudio as it happens with the gnome tool also.
Tested not working in 16.04, 16.10 and Mint 18 (packages from 16.04).
Policy installed: 1:8.0-0ubuntu3
Cheers

Please run "apport-collect 1631161" in a terminal so we can get some more hardware info.
Please also reproduce the problem and get a log from PulseAudio, as outlined here: https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/PulseAudio/ Log.
