+ 
+  * This should be backported to stable releases because this fix is

  [Impact]

   * User is only able to get mono audio from steelseries headsets
  because they provide both a stereo and mono output.  PA selects the
  mono output by default.

   * This should be backported to stable releases because this fix is 
     isolated to code that only applies to the affected headsets.  
     Additionally other gaming headsets may be more easily enabled by adding
