Hi!
PulseAudio 6.0 rc1 has now been released - compared to 5.0, we have over
300 patches contributed by 41 people, and that's just the tip of the
iceberg. All the millions of you who are using it, discussing it with
your friends or random people who are wrong on the Internet [1],
reporting bugs, answering questions on support forums, IRC channels,
Facebook etc, or in other ways have been caring for PulseAudio, you have
all helped shape PulseAudio what it is today. Thank you!
Some of the new features include:
* Bluez 5 HSP (headset profile) support, both with and without oFono
* SystemD socket activation support
* Better support for multichannel and 2.1 profiles
* Protocol optimisations
* Zsh shell completion support
* Remap optimisations
...but most of all, it's all of the many minor improvements and bug
fixes all across the place [2].
As usual, we are not 100% confident that not a bug or two might have
slipped in with all the improvements. Hence this is a release candidate,
which we count on you to test in your environment to make sure it still
works for you.

Oh, and btw. There is a caveat: extra-hdmi.conf has been merged into
default.conf. This can cause a transitional problem with a lot of
hardware not being detected by PulseAudio, and you can resolve it by
either rebooting your computer, or making a symlink from extra-hdmi.conf
to default.conf (in /usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/profile-sets).
Enjoy!

listed in the above list, my apologies.
