Bug#958286: pavucontrol: Missing escaping of & in device names

[Tollef Fog Heen]

Package: pavucontrol
Version: 4.0-1
Severity: minor

I have a bluetooth headset from Bowers & Wilkins.  It seems like
pavucontrol fails to escape the «&» in the name before feeding it to
GTK, leading to console errors like:

(pavucontrol:416883): Gtk-WARNING **: 20:28:02.902: Failed to set text
'Bowers & Wilkins PX' from markup due to error parsing markup: Error on
line 1: Entity did not end with a semicolon; most likely you used an
ampersand character without intending to start an entity — escape
ampersand as &
