<pre>The remapping is used to have a 5.1 headset connected at the rear, the 2.0
speakers connected at the rear and a 2.0 headset connected at the front.
sink-remap seemed as the easiest way to do it, or rather, the only example of
jack retasking on linux I was able to find at that point.
I didn't know that the grey jack would function as headphones in 5.1 mode, last
time I tried the output was silent (which was quite a while ago). Just tested
it and it seems to work the same as my sink-remap setup, meaning leaving the
headphones plugged at the front and restarting produces no sound at any output
until I re-plug the headphones.
The goal with remapping was also me hoping to completely separate the virtual
5.1 and 2.0 devices, so that playing music on one of them would leave the other
silent. But that doesn't seem to be possible wiht pulseaudio, at least I got no
reply to my mail some months ago.
In any case, the misbehavior exists even without retasking.</pre>
