After some time, with the audio working perfectly, I encountered some issues changing the default sink.
Running pacmd (or pactl) set-default-sink <sink> seemed to have no effect. So I tried to set the card profile off and then setting it back.
The problem is, I'm unable to change the profile back. I tried pactl set-card-profile alsa_card.pci-0000_00_1f.3-platform-skl_hda_dsp_generic HiFi\(HDMI1,HDMI2,HDMI3,Mic1,Mic2,Speaker\) (I know this seems to be a strange profile name, but I couldn't find the right name).
But I get 'Failure: No such entity'.

So turns out that I was indeed specifying the profile name wrong, I was just picking the name from the zsh suggestions.
The command pacmd set-card-profile 0 HiFi\ \(HDMI1,\ HDMI2,\ HDMI3,\ Mic1,\ Mic2,\ Speaker\) (with spaces) worked for me, and I was able to change the default sink.
