 | 
			
		||||
; about? Simply, what we do here is map ALSA devices to how they are
 | 
			
		||||
; exposed in PA. We say which ALSA device string to use to open a
 | 
			
		||||
; device, which channel mapping to use then, and which mixer path to
 | 
			
		||||
; use. This is encoded in a 'mapping'. Multiple of these mappings can
 | 
			
		||||
; be bound together in a 'profile' which is then directly exposed in
 | 
			
		||||
; the UI as a card profile. Each mapping assigned to a profile will
 | 
			
		||||
; result in one sink/source to be created if the profile is selected

; for the card.
