thing pavucontrol now sees is a single audio device that is able to
playback at most 5.1 channels. I can't re-route sound to anything else in
pavucontrol and the stereo speaker output is silent. I tried both internal
speaker and internal speaker (back)

Try enable independent headphone and disable pulseaudio mute if you want
two sinks, you can configure the grey jack as second headphone jack
