Example: pactl set-sink-volume "sink_name" 32000 40000
If the number of volumes provided is different than the number of channels
(excluding the case where a single volume is provided), an error message
is displayed explaining why the volumes could not be set.

see getopt(3):
""By default, getopt() permutes the contents of argv as it scans, so that
eventually all the nonoptions are at the end. Two other modes are also
implemented. If the first character of optstring is '+' or the envi‐
ronment variable POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, then option processing stops
as soon as a nonoption argument is encountered. If the first character
of optstring is '-', then each nonoption argv-element is handled as if
it were the argument of an option with character code 1. (This is used
by programs that were written to expect options and other argv-elements
in any order and that care about the ordering of the two.) The special
argument "--" forces an end of option-scanning regardless of the scan‐
ning mode.""
prepend optstring with '+' to use POSIXLY_CORRECT mode

Servers older than 0.9.15 don't know anything about cards, and card
operations will return a NULL pa_operation object when connected to
that old server. We must check the pa_operation pointer before passing
it to pa_operation_unref(), otherwise a NULL operation will result in
a crash.
The size of pa_card_profile_info cannot change even if it just a field
appended to end because each entry is appended to a contiguous memory
and accessed by offset this may lead clients to access invalid data.
To fix a new struct called pa_card_profile_info2 is introduced and shall
be used for now on while pa_card_profile_info shall be considered
deprecated but it is still mantained for backward compatibility.
A new field called profiles2 is introduced to pa_card_info, this new field
is an array of pointers to pa_card_profile_info2 so it should be possible
to append new fields to the end of the pa_card_profile_info2 without
breaking binary compatibility as the entries are not accessed by offset.
All pa_cvolume_snprint(), pa_volume_snprint(),
pa_sw_cvolume_snprint_dB() and pa_sw_volume_snprint_dB() calls have
been replaced with pa_cvolume_snprint_verbose() and
pa_volume_snprint_verbose() calls, making the log output more
informative and the code sometimes simpler.
This patch removes all occurrences of double and triple
newlines.
Command used for this:
find . -type d \( -name ffmpeg \) -prune -o \
-regex '\(.*\.[hc]\|.*\.cc\)' \
-a -not -name 'adrian-aec.*' -a -not \
-name reserve.c -a -not -name 'rtkit.*' \
-exec sed -i -e '/^$/{N;s/^\n$//}' {} \;
Two passes were needed to remove triple newlines.
The excluded files are mirrored files from external sources.
This patch replaces every occurrence of ')\n{' with ') {'.
Command used for this:
find . -type d \( -name ffmpeg \) -prune -o \
-regex '\(.*\.[hc]\|.*\.cc\)' \
-a -not -name core-util.c -a -not \
-name adrian-aec.c -a -not -name g711.c \
-exec sed -i -e '/)$/{N;s/)\n{$/) {/}' {} \;
The excluded files are mirrored files from external sources.
This patch replaces every occurrence of '){' with ') {'.
The ffmpeg source tree was excluded since it will disappear anyways.
Command used for this:
find . -type d \( -name ffmpeg \) -prune -o \
-regex '\(.*\.[hc]\|.*\.cc\)' \
-exec sed -i -e 's/){/) {/' {} \;
for example:
Profiles:
input:analog-stereo: Analog Stereo Input (sinks: 0, sources: 1, priority. 60)
output:analog-stereo: Analog Stereo Output (sinks: 1, sources: 0, priority. 6000)
it should be "priority: xxx", not "priority. xxx"

"pactl subscribe" is running continuously, and without flushing its output is
not usable for "process-on-arrival" per-line tasks, such as grepping. This
patch should fix this. For example, now:
pactl subscribe | grep 'server'
should print only server events as they arrive.
I went to implement the possibility to use the default sink/source
but found that it was already working. So I figured I'd update
the help text instead.

This adds two new commands to pactl:
set-default-sink
set-default-source
This command has been part of the native protocol for a long time,
no reason not to expose it in pactl.
This patch adds the ability to toggle mute for sink/sources and
sink-inputs and source outputs.
All mute commands now accept 1|0|toggle as an argument.
Now that the client API exposes availability information for ports
on cards, we can make output consistent with "list sinks" and
"list sources".

For volume control UIs to be able to show ports in inactive profiles,
expose all ports together with the card info. This includes updating
the protocol and the client API to show the connection between ports
and for which profiles the ports are relevant.
Update protocol to 26.

This adds a PA_SINK_SET_FORMATS flag to the pa_sink_flags enum,
signalling that a sink allows the set of supported formats to be set
externally. The idea is for clients to be able to know what sinks
support this ability and adapt their UI appropriately.
This is not ideal but in order to aid people using it in scripts
etc, we will maintain backwards compatibiliy here.
Also add a 'short' mode and mention in the man page that this
will ultimately become the default at some point in the future.
