It has never done that to me. Which music player do you use? It happens with every one? I use Rhythmbox, Totem, Mplayer2, and of course I watch videos in YouTube in Chromium; nothing even remotely similar has ever happened to me. But if it happens "after every song", maybe the music player somehow changes the setting? It sounds fishy, but PA should not change the setting by itself. Anyhow, I'm a perfectly happy 5.1 surround user with PulseAudio since at least two years.
