[pulseaudio-discuss] module-alsa-sink device

[Tadej Panjtar]

Thanks!

Unfortunately I have two custom sinks, my system.pa contains:

load-module module-alsa-sink device="hw:0,0" sink_name="seat0"
load-module module-alsa-sink device="hw:2,7" sink_name="seat1"

### Automatically load driver modules depending on the hardware available
.ifexists module-udev-detect.so
load-module module-udev-detect
.else
### Use the static hardware detection module (for systems that lack
udev/hal support)
load-module module-detect
.endif

### Load several protocols
.ifexists module-esound-protocol-unix.so
load-module module-esound-protocol-unix
.endif
load-module module-native-protocol-unix auth-anonymous=1

### Automatically restore the volume of streams and devices
load-module module-stream-restore
load-module module-device-restore

### Automatically restore the default sink/source when changed by the user
### during runtime
### NOTE: This should be loaded as early as possible so that subsequent
modules
### that look up the default sink/source get the right value
load-module module-default-device-restore

### Automatically move streams to the default sink if the sink they are
### connected to dies, similar for sources
load-module module-rescue-streams

### Make sure we always have a sink around, even if it is a null sink.
load-module module-always-sink

### Automatically suspend sinks/sources that become idle for too long
load-module module-suspend-on-idle

If PA is started via command as root it works. But if same command
is run via systemd, happens Got signal SIGTERM.
Here is log.
