-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 Sound modules in the Linux kernel have the ability to create input devices
 for sound card jacks through the snd_jack API.  (See sound/core/jack.c)
 These devices are exported as evdev devices which notify (and can be
 queried about) a few different switches.

 I'm attaching a new PA module which maps one of those devices to a source
 and/or sink.  Whenever the jack sense changes, a property is set on the
 source/sink.  Clients can watch for notifications and take action (such as
 muting, changing the default source/sink, migrating streams to that
 source/sink) when the property changes.
