Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pulseaudio

I have a 5.1 digital surround decoder attached to the optical out on my
soundcard, in previous versions of Ubuntu and Pulseaudio I have been
able to route my audio through the alsa a52 plugin which has worked
flawlessly with multiple applications mixing into one output and it up-
mixing stereo to 5.1.

Now with Ubuntu jaunty and the latest pulseaudio this no longer works, I get no 
audio out at all which is strange.
I updated to the latest alsa and still no change, my next step is compiling the 
latest pulseaudio from source.

I was wondering if this was something to do with that patch which routes
all audio through pulse, is there any way of disabling this?

My asound.conf looks like this:
pcm.!default {
        type pulse
}

ctl.!default {
        type pulse
}

pcm.pulse {
    type pulse
}

ctl.pulse {
    type pulse
    card 0
}

pcm.a52encode {
        type a52
        format S16_LE
        channels 6
        rate 48000
        bitrate 448
}

pcm.pulseaudio a52encode

ctl.pulseaudio {
        type hw
        card 0
}

and the relevant lines added to default.pa are this:
# This is for a52 surround
load-module module-alsa-sink device=pulseaudio rate=44100 channels=6 tsched=0 
sink_name=alsa_surround
set-default-sink alsa_surround

the output of the alsa-info.sh script is located:
