No more HDMI sound with ATI card

Hi,

I no longer have HDMI sound with my ATI card when I connect my PC to an external screen.
I don't even see my sound card in Gnome-center anymore; there is only my default sound card available.
I use Pulseaudio. I tried to re-install it with alsa-pulseaudio but my card is still missing from Gnome-center.

I tried with Pavucontrol and I saw my card turned off in "configuration" tab.
If I changed it for "Stereo output (HDMI) (unplugged) (unavailable)", my card appeared in Gnome-center and it worked properly.
But, at reboot, my card wasn't in Gnome-center and it turned off in Pavucontrol.

How to fix it?
Thanks for your help.

Re: No more HDMI sound with ATI card

Did you just upgrade your "pulseaudio" package from version 11 to version 12?

Because HDMI sound stopped working for me too. I'm sure it's a simple fix in my case, I just haven't gotten around to looking into it yet. So I did a naughty little workaround and simple downgraded back to version 11 for now, which brought sound back.

I use PulseAudio, HDMI output to my TV from my Radeon RX 560 video card.
