You could potentially add some code to filter on the sink flags before connecting and not switch to sinks with the network flag (this could be a modarg, with default behaviour being what you suggest). This, coupled with something like Tanu's preferred port work (https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/4093/) might get you what you want -- you select your network sink once, and it should get auto-selected the next time (ignoring the network flag checking logic). -- Arun
