            Bug ID: 107353
           Summary: pacmd always returns 0 code
           Product: PulseAudio
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: tools
          Assignee: pulseaudio-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: wolf+freedesktop at wolfsden.cz

pacmd always returns zero exit status, even when the command fails. Compare

        :( $ pacmd set-default-sink foobar ; echo $?
        Sink foobar does not exist.
        0

and

        [ wolf at ws ] :: ~
        Load: 0.38 0.24 0.15 , Memory: 6.01 %, Disk: 69.78 %
           $ mount foobar ; echo $?
        mount: foobar: No such file or directory
        1

Returning 1 on exit would make using pacmd much easier in scripts.
