I'm not (yet) talking about module-combine. I'm using module-remap-sink. When I add the sink_properties parameter as written above to module-remap-sink, PA chokes on it. When I remove it, it is fine. Thank you for the patch (and tested patch) for module-combine. It will be helpful there--it's just as needed. But I'm hoping I can do something similar for module-remap-sink... Timothy J. Massey
