Change default alsamixer card permanently?

Hmm… I’m trying to do it, but it’s not working.

I decided to change the order again by using /etc/alsa/conf.d/99-local-pw-default.conf (mentioned above). For some reason the “Family 17h/19h HD Audio Controller” entry has disappeared from it, so I can’t set it as the sink. Here’s what wpctl status shows now:
