You didn't understand me at all, please read other mails.

With that I have 2 issues:

1 - when a notify sound is played, it is very briefly displayed as a new
stream in playback page, just like all other PA streams. This make it
impossible to change a device for a normal long stream, as soon as I
click the button, the new stream takes the foucus out, and prevents menu
from beeing displayed.

2 - all nofify sounds play in my right ear (which is done by libcanberra
pa plugin, alsa works fine)

Thats all

Best regards,
