Not really sure what you mean by "I have a question regarding closing the pulseaudio sinks/source." (namely the "closing" bit). Do you mean when you are done and want to exit your application? Or do you just mean "stop it from outputting sound"? If the latter, I think mute is better. Suspend is when the devices have been asked to be suspended so that another application can use the audio hardware (or on a timeout so that pulse does not sit there hogging the device!) e.g. you can run an application that wants direct access to sound h/w via: shell> $ pasuspender myapp And it will suspend pulse's access to the device for the duration of the applications lifetime. While I don't know how the Java Ports thing works at all, I'd suspect you just want to mute it.
