--- Comment #2 from Frederick Eaton <frederik-freedesktop at ofb.net> ---
Thank you Tanu, that looks good. I wasn't aware that there are separate 'pacmd'
and 'pactl' man pages.

I'm not sure what the difference is, it is not quite clear from the manual
pages, the 'pactl' man page says "pactl only exposes a subset of the available
operations. For the full set use the pacmd". But 'pactl' has some commands
which are not in 'pulse-cli-syntax', like 'subscribe'. Also it is much more
convenient to refer to 'pactl' than 'pacmd' because all the 'pacmd' arguments
are documented in a separate man page ... anyway these are just some more
observations. I'm sure there are lots of things to work on documentation-wise,
thanks for taking the time to address my bug.
