Question: Get Sink Inputs

[oliveirafilipe]

Hi, i'm starting to think in build a sound controller that turns down a sink input volume when another, with high priority, is emitting sound.

I just started today to gather data and options to built it.

I think that i already realized that Pulseaudio's Sink Input is what I need to achieve this.

I saw your package and couldn't realize if it can list Sink Inputs. So, can I use your package to get Sink Inputs and manage their volume?

Thank you!

From what it seems, the PlaybackStreams property is synonymous with sink inputs. Furthermore, you can see what properties are available at PulseAudio's D-Bus documentation (see [1]).

An example is provided with PlaybackStreams, including how to get other properties.

pulseaudio/example_test.go

Line 147 in 29ac6bf

streams, _ := client.Core().ListPath("PlaybackStreams") // []ObjectPath

Here is an example on how to set properties.

pulseaudio/example_test.go

Line 189 in 29ac6bf

e = dev.Set("Mute", !muted)
