How to play the sink input to a null-sink? Do you mean keep parec running, writing to a file https://stackoverflow.com/a/43553706 ? Is there a --monitor-stream equivalent module? Perhaps I do not gather what you are describing, can you kindly post the basic commands to pipe the sink-input to a null-sink?

You could use module-combine-sink to play that sink input to a null-sink and the real sink, and then use the null-sink's monitor as your source.
