[HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH, playback] fails after a while

[Ritchey Mulhollem]

Output device keeps defaulting back to "Dummy Device". "Digital Surround 5.1 (HDMI) Output" is not available.

1. When sound is set back to its previous setting of "HDMI / DisplayPort - BuiltIn Audio" then the previous selection of "Digital Surround 5.1 (HDMI) Output" (and 7.1) is not available.
2. When sound is set to "Speakers Built-In Audio", then switched back to "HDMI / DisplayPort - BuiltIn Audio" then "Digital Surround 5.1 (HDMI) Output" IS available and the audio works correctly.

When the TV / Amplifier is turned off, then back on, the audio again defaults back to "Dummy Device" forcing a repeat of scenario 2 in order to get it working again.
