Well the name you give it already via sink_name, but you can change the description which will be shown in pavucontrol via the sink_properties= argument to the module: sink_properties="device.description='My Preferred Name'" Sadly, while this should work, the combine module will automatically update it, instantly overwriting your customisation. I think the attached patch should modify the module to work for you. Please let me know if it works as I've not tested it :) Col -- Colin Guthrie gmane(at)colin.guthr.ie http://colin.guthr.ie/ Day Job: Tribalogic Limited [http://www.tribalogic.net/] Open Source: Mandriva Linux Contributor [http://www.mandriva.com/] PulseAudio Hacker [http://www.pulseaudio.org/] Trac Hacker [http://trac.edgewall.org/] -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
