           Summary: default multi sink profile does not create digital
                    sink on startup

          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux (All)
          Reporter: sam.right at gmail.com
          Hardware: ARM
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: alsa
           Product: PulseAudio

I have a usb sound card and would like to have analogue output and digital
output presented as two sinks under pulseaudio server. 

To achieve this I added a multi-sink profile in
/usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/profile-sets/default.conf. That works if I
switch the profile from analog-output (default profile) to multi-sink (which
contains analog-output and iec958-stereo-output). The system will create a
digital output sink after the switch. 

I would like it to be done automatically whenever an alsa card is detected by
the system to avoid manual input. I modified priority of the multi-sink profile
to make it default however pulseaudio does not create a digital sink after
startup even the multi-sink profile is now the active one.

Can this be fixed?
