module-stream-restore and modile-filter-apply can get into an infinite
loop if m-s-r is called before m-f-a (m-s-r rescues a stream and
attaches it to a sink/source, which then triggers m-f-a to move it back
to the filter sink/source, and so on). The purpose of the m-f-a hooks is
to beat m-s-r, so moving them to be run first.
If module-jackdbus-detect failed in the later part of initialization,
the ma variable was freed twice.

Instead of relying on the snd_mixer_* functions failing, we check for
POLLERR and POLLNVAL first. After this, any errors in handling the mixer
events are deemed fatal (that is we cause the ALSA source/sink thread to
terminate).
The case where POLLERR is set but POLLNVAL is not does not actually
occur, but we're making this a soft failure (stop polling the mixer, but
don't kill the I/O thread). If other conditions where POLLERR occurs
turn up, we need to handle them explicitly.
Thanks to Linus Torvalds for helping get this right.
Loading between a sink and its monitor causes a deadlock (while sending
messages for latency snapshots). It isn't a case that has any real
conceivable use, so let's just disallow it.
This improves the error handling in the mixer rtpoll callback. It avoids
a crash if an error occurs (the rtpoll_item is freed but still
referenced), and specifically makes sure we don't continue trying to
poll the device if the card is disconnected.
This makes set_formats() put PCM formats lower down the list than
compressed formats since we negotiate by picking the first format in
this list that is also in the client-provided list of possible formats
during sink input creation.
This will be incorrect if we ever decide to do encoding in PA (for
things like AC3/DTS encoding for multichannel output over S/PDIF).
If module-dbus-protocol fails to start, pa__done is still called,
which falsified the assumption that u->connections was always set.

Sometimes the ALSA mixer can be modified during a point at shutdown
which causes a race condition trying to update the volume of an
unlinked sink.
Includes typo fix by our Chief Typo Spotter, Colin, and a clarifying
comment by me.

Uses the shared volume infrastructure by default with an option to
fallback on the old pretend-volume-sharing-that-kind-of-works if someone
wants it that way.
Users who keep left != right (or any sort of unbalanced channel volumes)
will likely want to disable shared volumes since it will cause their
master sink/source volume to be balanced.
This really isn't a very pleasant scenario since users would need to
manually set up echo cancellation in their config for this (until we
have a way to store module configuration). That said, the majority case
benefits from the volume sharing, so let's not wait for the
configuration infrastructure to be ready to use this.
Uses the shared volume infrastructure by default with an option to
fallback on the old pretend-volume-sharing-that-kind-of-works if someone

This just covers Lennart's concern over the terminology used.
The majority of this change is simply the following command:
grep -rli sync[-_]volume . | xargs sed -i 's/sync_volume/deferred_volume/g;s/PA_SINK_SYNC_VOLUME/PA_SINK_DEFERRED_VOLUME/g;s/PA_SOURCE_SYNC_VOLUME/PA_SOURCE_DEFERRED_VOLUME/g;s/sync-volume/deferred-volume/g'
Some minor tweaks were added on top to tidy up formatting and
a couple of phrases were clarified too.
The Kinect shows up as a UAC device after the firmware has been loaded,
but in order to be detected by pulseaudio a 4-channels input only
mapping is needed. Provide a new profile for that and set it with a udev
rule.

pa_core_maybe_vacuum now vacuums if there are either no streams or all devices are suspended.
The mempool_vacuum argument to module-suspend-on-idle is gone and defaults to true now.
We used to support older DBus versions but 1.3.0 is two years old
now and by requiring it we cut down of deviated code paths at
runtime and thus have less support issues.

The Apple TV for example uses a non-default port, but we previously ignored
this. We now correctly parse the server string but in so doing, we end up
parsing the address twice. As we need a pure IP/hostname of the device itself
to use in our requests, this is somewhat unavoidable.
Sadly there are still other problems with Apple TVs, but this is still
one step closer.
Fixes part of #950
Rather than write all the keys out for each port, simply write a 'null'
port entry and modify the read code to 'fallback' to this when it cannot
find a key. This is needed as the code used when writing the key may not
actually have the sink ports available at the time it uses them,
and thus can cause a segv. This approach adds some degree of overhead
but it's relatively minimal and it can be mitigated by compiling
without support for legacy database formats if so desired.
Thanks to David Henningsson for pointing out the problem.
I've seen more than one system where the volume control named
"Front" is a part of audio path for headphones. This is somewhat
of a compromise: While we don't merge it into the path, as that
would be regressing machines where "Front" isn't a part of the
audio path, it would still enable sound on these machines.

When unloading, some module may end up trin to move a sink-input or
source-output back onto our virtual sink/source, causing an infinite
loop of us moving the stream away and having it moved back.
We prevent this from happening by preventing any stream from being
attached during unload.
The priorities should be set in the approximately likeliness that someone
would like to use them. This is hard to guess of course, but this is
a better guess compared to the existing configuration.

This will allow for volumes to be saved separately for e.g. Headphones vs. Speakers.
At present it is possible that no volume will be saved for the device prior to the port
switch. In this case the volume will not change from the value set under the other port.
In an ideal world we would save the volume before switching port, but that would require
a new hook.
The device restore saves both the current port for a device, and the volume/mute/formats.
The latter three are really related to the device+port, not the device on it's own.
Thus we store just the port for a device in one key and the volume/mute/formats
under a different key that includes both the device and the port.
I initially included put the Speex preprocessing assuming that we'd want
to use the digital gain control and noise suppression from Speex for all
echo cancelling implementations. In practice, we're probably going to
get entire implementations all processing in one package (WebRTC, custom
modules from various vendors, etc.).
This moves out this preprocessing and related knobs into the speex
implementation, which serves to clean out all implementation-specific
details from the module-echo-cancel core.
