I would have  added the attribute to the csdev (say, sink_attr),
and add that to the group, so that it is easier to remove the
attribute when the sink device is removed from the system (when
we get there). It would be good to have something in place to remove the
attribute.

Otherwise, the overall approach looks fine to me.
