#175: Simultaneous output freezes clients if removed mid-use

I think the module-rescue isn't working working 100% right when dealing
with simultaneous output virtual device.
Clients can freeze if you
1. Configure the virtual device for simultaneous output via paprefs (3rd
tab)
2. Start a stream playing (e.g. with mplayer)
3. Use pavucontrol to move the stream to the simultaneous output "device"
4. Untick the option in paprefs which causes the "device" to be removed.
After the above steps the client freezes. I would expect module-recover-
streams to detect this and dump the stream to a real device. Indeed, this
is what pavucontrol and the pulseaudio -vv logs report '''has''' happened,
but this still doesn't stop it freezing the clients.
I have also had a more severe crash in testing where pa played an annoying
tone and wouldn't respond to CTRL+C and I had to kill -9 it.
Below is log output from a "normal" failure in the hope it vaguely helps.
