Hi,

I have a laptop on my desk connected via HDMI to a TV on the other side of the room, running Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS, now what I would like is for the system to work out which window, or at least which application is producing sound, and to selectively output on either the built-in laptop speakers, or the TV. Is this at all possible?

Right now I can easily change the output device via sound settings, but there is no way I can see to have both options simultaneously on, much less associate output to a device selectively.

Many thanks
