But as I explained, the gstreamer plugin for PA would just output the sound to my USB headphones, not the system speakers.
Even after what I mentioned in 2) ?
Yes, even after you mentioned 2). It's true, I can move the streams individually to the ALSA output, and that seems to work fine (but without Lennart's help, I didn't figure it out, because if you just open pavucontrol there's no stream listed there if no app is playing silently in the background).
I think now PA bound somehow some apps to the USB sink and setting the default doesn't work anymore...
I see a lot of ill will, and not much closure. Does it work now, or not?
It kinda works in that I can go manually redirect each app to ALSA. Far from ideal, but at least I get some sound out.
Thank you.
And no, I have no ill will towards PA. In fact I really appreciate the work Lennart is doing to improve sound. But I am frustrated by what I've been put through with this sound business. Anybody in my place would have been. It'll pass...
