No, you cannot move a sink input to a source. Sink inputs are Output
Streams and Sources are input devices.

A monitor source is just a device that you can record from (just like a
mic). It will contain the same data that is playing on the device.

As said on the other thread, it should be resampled and then mixed.
That's certainly how other sinks work and I don't think the bluetooth
one is any different (but I don't know the code that well).
