Finding and implementing this script made my night.

Awesome! Thank you. Note: I did have to install libnotify-bin in order for the popup notification to work.

The script works just fine by itself, but the keyboard shortcut won't function in my 10.10, it only says "launching the application attached to the keyboard shortcut failed". Anyone have ideas for a workaround?

For the time being I put a launcher to Gnome panel and it works from there.

Installing libnotify-bin and getting the popup was the icing on the cake (I was testing it by looking at the radio buttons in Preferences > Sound jump up and down).

Rimus: It worked for me in 10.10. Have you done the very stupidly obvious thing of checking the path in the shortcut, and file permissions?

Great script, that is what I was looking for, thanks a lot! But is there any way to implement an OSD notification quickly showing the name of the device which just got activated? Best regards.

My script was not working, because I was using only
pacmd "set-default-sink ..."

this is what I was missing:
pacmd "move-sink-input $app $next_sink_index"

thanks A LOT!

Works great!

Ubuntu developers, please do this automatically when an HDMI cable is plugged/unplugged!! PLEASE!

Really great, thx for this script. Also works on Natty and with my Bluetooth-Headset

PS: This would be awesome for the sound indicator
