Sources are changed in the same way, so s/sink/sink, source/. Also, it
seems that the intention is to not allow changing the sample format, so
"complete sample spec" is not correct.

Do you expect there to be some future use? To me making the channel map
configurable seems to just make things more complicated for no reason.

This will try to change the channel count even with non-passthrough
streams.

In several places a message about the new spec is logged after calling
pa_sink_reconfigure(). I think that logging should be done in
pa_sink_reconfigure().

This will try to change the channel count even with non-passthrough
streams.
There was and still is error handling missing for passthrough streams.
Or if passthrough streams can't be corked, then the
pa_sink_input_is_passthrough() call can be replaced with simple
"false".

Or if passthrough streams can't be moved, then the
pa_sink_input_is_passthrough() call can be replaced with simple
"false".

The restore parameter is unnecessary. If spec is non-NULL, then we are
not restoring, and if it is NULL then we are restoring.

Only rate and channel count can be changed, not the sample format.
It seems that a check is missing that would make pa_sink_reconfigure()
fail if format reconfiguration is attempted.
There should also be a check that prevents the channels to be changed
with non-passthrough streams.

Not visible here, but the "Cannot update rate, SINK_IS_RUNNING" and "
Cannot update rate, monitor source is RUNNING" messages need to be
updated to reflect the fact that we may be reconfiguring the channel
count instead of the rate.

There are a couple of checks that are not visible here that I don't
really understand. Can you tell me what these checks are for?
if (pa_sample_spec_equal(&desired_spec, &s->sample_spec) && passthrough == pa_sink_is_passthrough(s))
return -1;
if (!passthrough && pa_sink_used_by(s) > 0)
return -1;
The first one is a complete mystery to me. The pa_sink_used_by() check
makes some sense, but we already checked if the sink or its monitor are
running. Why is the pa_sink_used_by() check not done with passthrough
streams?

I don't see the need for the device to decide. Pushing the decision to
the sink backend requires extra code in the backend for no benefit.

Remapping isn't very nice, because it loses information. When we enter
passthrough, the original volume with the original channel map should
be saved and then the volume should be set to 100% with the new channel
map. Now we first remap the original volume and only then save it.
Could the volume change code be moved from
pa_sink_enter/leave_passthrough() to pa_sink_reconfigure() and
reordered so that remapping isn't needed?
I didn't review the source side changes.
