Are those monitors actively connected? If not, that's a clear bug we can fix. If so, I guess we should try to map the monitor's device to a better name for it. But be aware that the monitor names that come from manufacturers often aren't any better than the names that audio devices have. An easy fix might be to get rid of the device name entirely, so that we don't have weird long technical mumbo-jumbo in parentheses). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
