Please refer to [PulseAudio] #414: > able to set default sink/source even the sink/source name doesn't > exist (http://www.pulseaudio.org/ticket/414) This late binding is intended behaviour. It was previously used to allow default sinks that point to autoload sinks. Autoloading is now deprecated but I do believe it makes sense to keep this behaviour. Firstly to not break compat, and secondly because this allows arbitrary execution orders of commands during initialization. (Also, I don't really see why this behaviour is that bad in the first place anyway...)
