This module seems quite useful to me as you might expect it to break down
multichannel sound to say 2 channel signals and send it to the speaker set
of your choice.
For example say one has a 7.1 speaker set.He could simply set a master
sink loading the module-alsa-sink device=surround71 and then begin to
break down the signal to 4 separate speaker sets with module-remap-sink.
However this is not possible due to the fact that when ALL of the virtual
sinks created by module-remap-sink have the same name on the sink
list.This creates a conflict leading to pulseaudio crashing if one loads
more than one modules with module-remap-sink.
My suggestion is to be able to set the name of the virtual sink created.
Configuration of my default.pa in case someone wants to reproduce the bug.
load-module module-alsa-sink sink_name=alsa_out device=surround51:1
channels=6 channel_map=front-left,front-right,aux0,aux1,aux2,aux3
load-module module-remap-sink sink_name=front_stereo master=alsa_out
channels=2 master_channel_map=aux0,aux1 channel_map=front-left,front-right
load-module module-remap-sink sink_name=rear_stereo master=alsa_out
channels=2 master_channel_map=aux2,aux3 channel_map=front-left,front-right
