There may be an issue between the system and your hardware, perhaps an issue with Pulse adding the extra audio buses (virtual cables). Try removing the code at the bottom of /etc/pulse/default.pa
Another thing which may fix the issue is a "sudo pulseaudio -k" command to kill pulseaudio. Pulse should try to restart when you play media with audio.
