[pulseaudio-discuss] Virtual sink to pipe audio stream to STDIN of shell-command?

[Rene Bartsch]

Hi,

with

load-module module-pipe-sink format=s32le rate=96000 channels=8 
channel_map=front-left,front-right,rear-left,rear-right,front-center,lfe,side-left,side-right 
sink_name=brutefir.FCA610  file=/tmp/brutefir.FCA610  
sink_properties='device.description="BruteFIR Behringer FCA610"'

a virtual sink can be created which pipes audio streams to a FIFO. The 
drawback is that an external script has to start external processing of 
the audio stream.

Is there any way to call a shell command from Pulseaudio and route a 
virtual sink to STDIN of that shell-command?
