I just realized I missed one other use case... pa has no concept of
window order..
  - With 2 streams of the same role (other then notification) are
active the stream that has the higher client in the window stack
should be the active stream, all other streams should be corked

I'm not absolutely sure of what "corked" means, but it seems to mean "paused".
If so, I don't agree. Here's an example where I don't want anything to happen to current sound when another sound of the same nature begins:

My son watches a cartoon on TV, the picture of which comes from the S-Video output of the PC (display :1 ); the sound is directed at the TV as well using sound card #2. Meanwhile, on the computer's screen (display :0 ), I watch a conference, the sound of which goes to the screen's integrated speakers through sound card #1.

This setup is quite common with me. Even more often (but then roles are different I guess), the HiFi plays Deezer (good music) while the integrated speakers let me hear both the orator of the lengthy conference I'm attending, and the events' sounds of the little game I have alongside, for moments in the conference when there's nothing interesting being said.

I definitely don't want any sound to ever be paused or stopped automatically. But then, maybe I'm not part of the normal users...

Yves.
