I doubt that will be possible.

After reading through those bug reports and related issue links, it's pretty clear that this is not a use case that they are particularly interested in supporting. May I perhaps suggest using a different browser?

No idea, I've never done it myself. The example listed in the online docs shows a simple stereo swap, so you could presumably adapt it by switching the channels to be non-swapped (and of course substitute your specific master source name). https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/User/Modules/#module-remap-source --Sean _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
