Configuration convergence:
From the OS side, we have Desktop OSes relying on PA, Chrome using CRAS,
Android using flinger. With DSPs and tons of configuration it doesn't bode well to have multiple configuration for same stuff for the sound cards. Can we talk about unifying the configuration at least. Sure OSes will have their own ways to use, but from ALSA can we standardize configurations which can be reused across.
I thought UCM was targeted to this, but not widely used as expected?
Right, the problems with alsa-lib licensing and the changes in the configuration format have been a bit of a blocker - there are actually some substantial deployments of the pre-merge configuration file format.
