Thanks! :)

Yup, that bit's been rewritten without a lot of asserts.

The format we have at this point is the negotiated format, so there is
only one.

Ack on all 3 counts.

Also fixed.

I held off because I thought that pacmd was going to be dropped before
too long. Is this not the case? Sink port information seems to have not
been added, I'll sync that as well if required.

It should not assert since we want to gracefully fail (that is the

I've done a rebase against current master and pushed to the same
location.

Indeed, it does. I've put fixing this on my TODO list. Will try to get
to it soon.
