[pulseaudio-discuss] hard channel mapping issue

[Dennis Heuer]

Hello,

seems that I was wrong. The issue still exists. The channel mapping is
still wrong (all these left-of and right-of entries.) Now I have 5.1
but the voice is more to the left and, generally, the sound is weak and
the right is even more weak. 

Also, please excuse, I first took wrong chip info from the wrong manual.

the output of alsa-info.sh is too long and attached

I also tried pulseaudio -k --log-level=4 --log-target='file:pulse.log',
but the file stays empty...
