[ubuntu-studio-users] Sound broke in upgrade to 19.10

[Cyril Giraud]

I've got an other sound issue with 19.10 on desktop with PCIe sound card.
Kdenlive plays sound on my HDMI monitor instead of my PCIe card since 
19.10 dist-upgrade, and I found no way to change this (this is also 
default with VLC, but easy to change with Audio Menu).
No error logged in my /var/log/syslog
     Cyril.
