Well, this is embarrassing. The last time I started pulseaudio for verbose
output I indeed didn't have my speakers plugged in the back analog output
(I plugged them to the front as a workaround). I checked the first verbose
log, I created, and at that time I had the speakers plugged in 'Line Out
CLFE Jack'. Having them plugged to this jack did work before the update
(I'm sure), now only 'Line Out Front Jack' (it's actually in the back)
works, which is probably correct. If I understand it well, CLFE jack is for
4 (or whatever more than 2) channel sound together with 'Line Out Surround
Jack'. It didn't occur to me, that I could have had the speakers in wrong
jack or just to try a different one, as it worked before the update.

Thanks for your effort. I'm terribly sorry to waste your time over such
banality.

With best wishes,
