Bug Description
Description: Ubuntu 15.04
Release: 15.04
Under PulseAudio Preferences > Multicast/RTP, when checking "Enable Multicast/RTP sender" and selecting "Create separate audio device for Multicast/RTP".
Expected Behaviour:
No multicast traffic unless the extra device created for Multicast/RTP is actually in use / selected as an output device.
Actual Behaviour:
Multicast traffic even though the extra device created for Multicast/RTP is not in use / selected. The multicast traffic completely overloads Wifi which basically results in Wifi being unusable.
This seems to be a regression from Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn where this worked as expected.
