Hi all, Just a heads-up: there's a discussion ongoing in the Gnome GitLab about new public client API for figuring out which ports share jack detection and for annotating ports with device type information: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libgnome-volume-control/-/merge_requests/10 As is the case always with client API additions, it's very desirable to get the API right the first time, because we can't break compatibility later. Therefore I'm inviting input from anyone interested in this topic. The background in short: many laptops have a headset connector that can be used with headphones, headsets or stand-alone microphones, but the hardware can't tell what kind of device was plugged in. Gnome has a pop-up dialog that allows the user to tell what they plugged in, but as new laptops are moving to use UCM, that dialog doesn't work any more. Fixing it properly seems to require changes to the PulseAudio client API. -- Tanu https://www.patreon.com/tanuk https://liberapay.com/tanuk _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
