A 6-channel audio device I wrote support announces a single ALSA
subdevice that has to be opened as a whole in order to access all six
channels. However, I would like to offer the channels as three pairs of
stereo (for both directions), so stereo clients can be routed to each of
them individually.
From what I saw in the alsa-mixer module code, there is no way to
specify such things of settings in the profile-sets, right? Are there
any plans to support these kind of setups?
So even if the card would be used as three stereo pairs, Pulseaudio
would still have to open the device with six channels, right?
Exactly. All other attempts to open the pcm will fail.
For the record, ICE1712 cards have the same problem (can only open with
10 output channels and 12 input channels), so PulseAudio in general
failed to open them. I resolved that with this alsa-lib patch:
