When selecting an HDMI/DisplayPort (IEC958) output path, the hardware
mute switch remains in kernel default state (muted), causing no audio
output despite correct software routing.
Root cause: pa_alsa_path_select() only sets mute switches when
mute_during_activation is enabled. No mixer paths enable this setting,
making the switch configuration code unreachable for IEC958 paths.
Solution: Always set mute switches to match device mute status after
path activation, regardless of mute_during_activation setting.
Testing: Added test-alsa-path-select tool to verify the fix.
- Loads mixer path and calls pa_alsa_path_select()
- Verifies switch states match expected values
- Tested on AMD Radeon HDMI and Realtek ALC257 analog
Manual verification:
- Before: IEC958 switch OFF, no audio
- After: IEC958 switch set correctly, audio works
This bug was inherited from PulseAudio's ALSA mixer path code where
HDMI path configurations lack IEC958 unmute sections.

For SPA libraries that we link against elsewhere in the tree, declare a
declare a dependency "foo_dep" for that library that specifies how to
link to it. Then use that dependency in the various targets.
This removes the knowledge of how to link with the library from the
target which can treat it as just another dependency.
In the case of optional libraries (e.g. the journal support lib) we can
then use declare_dependency() to declare an empty dependencies and thus
link them unconditionally in the target.
These headers are designed for including in the project. So the user doesn't
need to install valgrind-devel and we don't have to worry about whether the
headers are available or not.
This is needed for example for Clang compiler which uses different
annotations than GCC. It will make WebRTC to happily use PipeWire
since the spa library is header-only and WebRTC defaults to use
Clang with -Wimplicit-fallthrough.
libacp is a port and wrapper around the pulseaudio card profile code.
It uses a set of templates for construct a card profile and mixer port
settings. It also has support for UCM when available for the hardware.
