You don't specify the exact PA sink/source in .asoundrc, you just
specify "use pulse" there. See
http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup#ALSAApplications
Then your alsa app should connect to pulse, and you use pavucontrol (or
possibly your PulseAudioManger) to move its stream to the "tunnel..."
source. If you have module-stream-restore loaded, it'll remember that
source for future invocations of your app.
