So, this discussion seems to have ground to a halt. Summarising briefly it seems that Lennart and Kay both seem adamant that they don't want a unified jack object visible to userspace, they want to glue the objects together via some implicit means. Lennart mentioned that there is some support for at least some of this functionality in PulseAudio already but didn't provide any details yet - does anyone else know what happens here or have time to go look at the code?
So AFAIK, there is no support in PulseAudio per-se for this.
Hrm, nobody else seems to have any idea...
I'm not 100% sure what elements of a sink is used to do this matching but I'd take a wild stab in the dark guess at the "device.bus_path" entry in the proplis which can look something like: device.bus_path = "pci-0000:00:1d.7-usb-0:7.1:1.0"
...this being the key bit.
