Youtube Video Loads correctly, but doesn't play I change audio output

I am running Gnome and using Brave as my default browser, but whenever I restart my computer the youtube video won't start playing unless I change the audio out type. I have a HYPER X CLOUD II headset. So I usually have to switch from Digital Output (S/PDIF) - HyperX 7.1 Audio, to Analog Output - HyperX 7.1 Audio. Is there a fix for this issue? Do I need some sort of driver for my hyper x headset?

set "Analog Output - HyperX 7.1 Audio" as default/fallback device

If the above isn't sufficient post

sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/*
pactl list cards
pactl list sinnks
