[pulseaudio-discuss] module-remap-sink not working for surround card

For multiple stereo streams , it is better done in driver if your desktop
are using intel hda controller which may support four SDO which allow you
to playback four streams concurrently

   gcap = azx_readw(chip, GCAP);
dev_dbg(card->dev, "chipset global capabilities = 0x%x\n", gcap);

Compile the debug version driver and check the global capabilities to find
out the number of SDO and SDI
