Have you tried "pacmd set-default-sink 9" ? Alternatively, remove
~/.config/pulse and let PA pick up default from hw.snd.default_unit.

Firefox can also set PA sink via media.cubeb.output_device in about:config
based on Name from Output Devices in about:support (Media section) but for
some reason it doesn't work here.
