Use `pacmd list-sinks` to figure out the index number for the device you
want and then run `pacmd set-default-sink N` to set it as the default.

If you shutdown from the command line KDE Plasma gets killed before it has
a chance to save anything. You'll need to shutdown from within Plasma if

You could create an alias for the long-winded command to shut down Plasma
if you still want to use the command line:
