Audio output list not refreshing when plugging in an HDMI cable

Hi,
I've an issue with HDMI audio: I'm on GNOME 3.12 and if I plug in an HDMI cable (connected to a TV), the HDMI audio output option won't appear neither in gnome audio control panle (gnome setting) neither in pavucontrol. But if I log out and log in again, the HDMI audio option will appear and audio will be sent to TV correctly. The opposite happens if I unplug the cable and I want to select something else as output. I need to log out and login again to switch back to laptop speaker and hear the sound.
How can I fix that?
Thanks!
