Package: pavucontrol
Version: 3.0-4
Followup-For: Bug #786750

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
     
     Playing supertuxkart with an attached USB DAC

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

     I opened Pulse audio control to changed from Built-In Audio to my DAC.
     Clicking on the Built-in audio to change to the DAC, I could select
     the DAC not with mouse, but by hitting space.

     I also tried a suggestion from pulseaudio freenode channel: 
     https://askubuntu.com/questions/433459/move-audio-stream-from-openal-application-to-different-audio-device
 
     Basically, it was to add a ~/.alsoftrc file with allow-moves = true

   * What was the outcome of this action?

     Upon hitting enter with the DAC select, it reverted back to built-in
     audio for the stream

     Adding the "allow-moves = true"  and restarting also did nothing

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

     DAC setting to be set and audio to start streaming to the DAC -- neither
     happened
