In reviewing the wiki I noticed the following:
---
module-alsa-sink
Provides a playback sink for devices supported by the Advanced Linux
Sound Architecture (ALSA). The sink name defaults to alsa_output.
In addition to the general device driver options described above this
module supports:
device
The ALSA device to use. (defaults to "hw:0,0")
fragments
The desired fragments when opening the device. (defaults to 12)
fragment_size
The desired fragment size in bytes when opening the device
(defaults to 1024)
---
Perhaps it should be updated since the device section would lead one
to believe that the hw:x,x nomenclature is the proper way to set the
device argument. I don't think at this point I'm enough of an expert
on PA to do it otherwise I would volunteer.
Thanks,
Richard
