I'm going to try the workflow Pulseaudio -> module_pipe_sink -> FIFO -> external sudo BruteFIR call -> FIFO -> module_pipe_source -> Pulseaudio to run BruteFIR asynchronously which leads to the following questions about Pulseaudio: 1. Is there any way to hide the hardware device/sink from applications but use it internally? 2. How can I route the audio-stream from the virtual module_pipe_source to the hardware device without any remixing or conversion and exclusive access? 3. Is there any hook in Pulseaudio to start an external shell-command with Pulseaudio? -- Best regards, Renne
