   These work for me (season to taste):   
      
   $ mpv --audio-device=pulse/alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo   
   File.mkv # desktop speakers   
      
   $ mpv --audio-device=pulse/alsa_output.pci-0000_01_00.1.hdmi-stereo   
   File.mkv  # HDMI TV speakers   
      
   mpv --audio-device=help should give a comprehensive list of all   
   available devices.   
      
   HTH
