This is a bug that should be fixed in the source. But you can work around this by loading the failing card manually, just give it a unique name in the module arguments. > What is the reasoning behind setting this flag at all? > Which side-effect will I experience by simply ignoring this flag, and > trying to add a ".%u" to the card-name anyway? The flag exists, because if the card is loaded manually, and the user provides a name for the card, it makes sense to fail in case the name isn't unique. The user may have some configuration or scripts or something that depends on the name not being automatically mangled - failing early in such situation is better than failing late. So, how to fix the bug? I'd just add a new module argument for module-alsa-card: namereg_fail. It could be used by module-udev-detect to override the normal logic for setting the flag. -- Tanu Kaskinen _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
