Thanks for the suggestion. It is a reasonable idea to be able to play
sound from different applications on different sets of speakers. For
example, playing music on a home sound system while playing everything
else in the PC speakers.
This bug report is Incomplete, however, because it's not clear that it
would involve any work being done in the sound menu. How do you know
that that would be the best way to present the feature? What
alternatives did you consider? That someone who just wants to change the
volume would be subjected to pictures of circuit boards strongly
suggests that this is not the best way to present it! The next step is
for someone to sketch out half a dozen possible interaction methods for
the feature, listing the benefits and disadvantages of each.
Separately, someone would need to devise a reliable way of generating
human-readable names for streams. Displaying anything remotely like
"ICE1712 [Envy24] PCI Multi-Channel I/O Controller Analog Multi-Channel
Main Output" in any prominent place would be crack.
