Package: pulseaudio
Version: 12.2-2
Severity: important

Due to alsa-plugins upstream change here[1], after libasound2-plugins
1.1.7, files in /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf.d no longer load by default

Pulseaudio should ship /etc/alsa/conf.d/pulse.conf instead of
/usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf.d/pulse.conf, or create symlink
/etc/alsa/conf.d/pulse.conf -> /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf.d/pulse.conf.

Before create the symlink:

    $ amixer info
    Card default 'PCH'/'HDA Intel PCH at 0xdc628000 irq 132'
      Mixer name	: 'Realtek ALC3246'
      Components	: 'HDA:10ec0256,10280704,00100002 HDA:80862809,80860101,00100000'
      Controls      : 57
      Simple ctrls  : 19

After create the symlink:

    $ sudo ln -s /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf.d/pulse.conf /etc/alsa/conf.d/pulse.conf
    $ amixer info
    Card default 'pulse'/'PulseAudio'
      Mixer name	: 'PulseAudio'
      Components	: ''
      Controls      : 4
      Simple ctrls  : 2
