Comment:
The device name is intended to be something "technical". It is not
necessarily something a user would want to read. For example: if HAL is
used the sink/source names become something like
"alsa_output.pci_1106_3059_alsa_playback_0".
The device name is for technical people. The device description is more
useful for non-technical people. pavucontrol is nor non-technical people.
paman is for technical people. Thus the current behaviour makes a lot of
sense.
