[pulseaudio-discuss] {PATCH][RFC] AC3 passthrough support

# Encode AC3 -> Directly on hardware
# with Rate Converter to 48kHz, needed for some applications
pcm.a52 {
    @args [ CARD ]
    @args.CARD {
        type integer
    }
    type rate
    slave {
        pcm {
            type a52
            bitrate 448
            channels 6
            card $CARD
        }
        rate 48000
    }
}


If I replace $CARD with 0 (manually), the above works - does anyone know why it 
doesn't work when I leave the $CARD there - shouldn't it get it from Pulseaudio 
when udev tries a52:0 ? Or is this not the correct way to do it?

Cheers,
Mike

Oops, this is a typo. 'edit' the profile I meant, not exit You can
keep a52:0 in the profile definition, no need to change pulseaudio
configuration files.
