 I bought a cheap usb audio device identfying itself as "C-Media
 Electronics, Inc. CM106 Like Sound Device" (usb id 0d8c:0102). This device
 has 5.1 output and indeed pavucontrol lists 26 configurations for it,
 including various 5.1 configurations.

 However, when I plug this into my computer while pulse is already running,
 it only reports three configurations, all of them stereo. Restarting pulse
 fixes the problem. Weirdly, if I unplug and replug the device while pulse
 is running, it will report the same 26 or 3 configurations, depending on
 what the number was before the unplug.

 I'm running pulseaudio 0.9.22 from Debian unstable.

 I will attach the output of pulseaudio -v in both cases, in case that
 might help.
