Before doing this, think about the problem this faces: You have two different audio devices that work with different buffers, different timers and probably different audio requirements. This will create a problem for pulseaudio related to synchronization. One sound card might ask for audio a little faster each time so you might notice some delays or roughness... This is the reason that it doesn't support multiple sinks... But if you don't mind that, then: Basically you would want a dummy sink for all your audio, you can choose to add the equalizer to the dummy sink, connect the monitor of the dummy sink to the two outputs and you're done. You can also add individual equalizers to each output and connect the dummy sink monitor to the two equalizers. It's a matter of what you actually want to achieve with the equalizers. Now, for the basic splitting (you can decide where you want to add the equalizer(s) to): You make a null sink for all your audio: load-module module-null-sink sink_name=AudioOut And use the loopback module to connect the monitor of the null to the different soundcards: load-module module-loopback source=AudioOut.monitor sink=<audiocard_1> load-module module-loopback source=AudioOut.monitor sink=<audiocard_2> Daniel Sonck
