Thanks! I've pushed the patch. I added "osx: " prefix to the commit
message, and removed the pa_card_new_data_set_profile(&card_new_data,
"on") call. Selecting the initial card profile should only be done by
policy modules (setting it in coreaudio-device prevents the policy
modules from working, because they won't alter the profile if it's
already set). If it's not set at all, the highest priority profile will
automatically be selected, so leaving the profile unselected is fine.
