Actually, nowadays I prefer seeing PA as black box, where only PA
decides what device clients should be connecting to, not the clients
themselves. Policy decisions should be up to the sound server, not the
client.

That said, in some situations (like probably this one) it does make
sense to have device selection in the clients
themsevles. Unfortunately ALSA device enumeratin is rather flaky and
we don't support it in the PA backend for libasound.
