Sound Settings menu malfunctions
This appears to be a hardware-
But nevermind the counterintuitive design. The real problem is that you cannot get a given sound source to play unless you highlight it with the orange selector bar. It doesn't matter whether you've unmuted it on the bar at the top of the window. (Logically, that would be the master mute, but it's not because Sound Settings remembers whether or not each individual channel is muted.)
And worse, this not-really-
I've never seen a sound control interface where not highlighting the name of the sound source before you close the window causes it to become muted. FYI I'm using a USB headset attached to a laptop with speakers, and a monitor with speakers connected over HDMI. I don't think further hardware details are relevant here, but I can provide them if need be.
Enough said. This GUI needs an overhaul.
