[pulseaudio-discuss] [PATCH 1/2] alsa: Use alsa-lib's channel mapping API to select the best channel map

nitpicking below; what blocks this patch?

map could be const

there are no asserts; the internal functions proposed do have asserts... 
it should be the other way around :)

init of buf unnecessary I think

this seems dangerous; I'd rather have a sizeof(snd_pcm_chmap_t) in there, 
and make sure it is zero'd

this function does a lot more that checking for compatibility, find better 
name?
map const?
