Bug Description
I have an Nvidia based video card that has an HDMI output + a DisplayPort output.
DisplayPort output audio is listed as "Digital Stereo (HDMI)" and HDMI output is listed as "Digital Stereo (HDMI 2)".
I prefer to use "Digital Stereo (HDMI 2)".
But after each display sleep (screen lock for example) audio is switched to built in audio

I guess your bug is similar to this one: https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ pulseaudio/ +bug/1888598
Could you please do a test:
edit the /usr/share/ pulseaudio/ alsa-mixer/ paths/hdmi- output- 0.conf and hdmi-output-1.conf, change the priority in 0.conf to 58 and change the priority in 1.conf to 59, then reboot and redo the test.
