How do you set the default speaker on Ubuntu 20.04 focal

  • 772

I have tried pactl list short sink, but I get

Connection failure: Connection refused
pa_context_connect() failed: Connection refused

which leads me to believe that ubuntu is using a different audio management technology now. Is this correct? What is the proper way to set the default speaker in focal?
