[gst-devel] rename pulseaudio source/sink programmatically

Hi,

I use pygst to connect to pulseaudio and I would like to be able to tell
pulseaudio what the name of my application is so that the user knows
what to do with it when many show up in the volume control.
(at the moment it seems to use the application's name as found on the
command line)

I can see other apps doing it: VirtualBox can name each virtual machine
it launches as: "VBox: THENAME"

Is the functionnality exposed somewhere that I've missed in gstreamer's
pulse source/sink API? and in pygst?

Thanks
Antoine
