 The kernel loads drivers in parallel, so sometimes the order of audio
 devices is different because of different load order.  You can put a
 file in /etc/modprobe.d specifying the position of the devices, and this
 shouldn't happen any more.

I may have a look into this when I have time but I haven't noticed that
this issue occurs during reboots but mythtv uses the sound device directly
while chrome utilizes pulseaudio. Either way though, it should remember the
setting between reboots. The only thing I can think of is that at some
point it's choosing the device before the hdmi audio device is ready and
reverting to the builtin audio but that's purely conjecture on my part.

Thanks,
