HI,

Installed Mint 18 last night and everything works well besides HDMI sound. At first on the fresh install i changed the settings to output to HDMI and everything works well. But as soon as i restart the computer the sound will revert back to the built in audio and i have to then change it back to HDMI. and so far every restart i have had to change the settings once again.I have also noticed every time i step away from PC and the screen saver comes on it switches back to built in audioIs this a bug or is there anyway i can sort this out. ???

Please help.

I did not find the right solution from the internet.
