I have a problem publishing a sink because of a name collision the exact error message is: E: module-zeroconf-publish.c: avahi_entry_group_add_service_strlst(): Local name collision This appears to be coming about because I'm using remap to split up a card into two stereo sinks. The published names for the remapped sinks are identical. The configuration I'm using is: load-module module-alsa-sink sink_name=card0 device=surround40:CA0106 channels=4 channel_map=front-left,front-right,rear-left,rear-right load-module module-alsa-sink sink_name=lounge_room device=surround40:CA0106_1 channels=4 channel_map=front-left,front-right,rear-left,rear-right load-module module-remap-sink sink_name=dining_room master=card0 channels=2 master_channel_map=front-left,front-right channel_map=front-left,front-right load-module module-remap-sink sink_name=bed_room master=card0 channels=2 master_channel_map=rear-left,rear-right channel_map=front-left,front-right load-module module-zeroconf-publish load-module module-native-protocol-tcp auth-anonymous=1 Any suggestions? Using pavucontrol and avahi-discover, I see that the name for both dining_room and bed_room would have been mapped to: "Remapped ALSA PCM on surround40:CA0106 (CA0106) on root at brain.localnet" The gnome-volume-control name is a lot easier to read "dining_room on [192.168.42.3]:4713" One more thing: Is there anyway to export only a subset of sinks because I don't what to export the sink that was split up into two stereo sinks.
