Pulseaudio loopback changing source when new source is connected

I have an audio stream coming in from line-in that I prefer to have monitored at all times. I use the following command to do this:
pacmd load-module module-loopback latency_msec=1 source='alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo'
and every time I connect any additional audio source (webcam, usb mic, etc) it changes to that source... resulting in near ear-bleed levels of feedback causing me to either rip the source out as quickly as possible or unload the module and execute the command again.
I'm naming the source in this command... why does it keep changing when new sources are connected? How do I permanently add a loopback of a specified device THAT WONT CHANGE?

Tried commenting out "load-module module-switch-on-connect" in /etc/pulse/default.pa and had no effect. Thought that would have done it, but I feel like I'm missing something...

Anyone? Hard to believe no one has run into this...
