Still, isn't UCM going to address some of the complexity by abstracting the routing/agorithms with some predefined configurations?
UCM definitely helps at runtime but in an ideal world we'd still have the nice pointy clicky tools that provide a beautiful GUI visualising the system audio setup so people could use those when configuring the setup for UCM.
Or are you talking about going beyond static UCM configurations into something more flexible based on the Media Controller API?
I can see us still needing something dynamic for things like tunneled audio streams where you're likely to have them being instantiated dynamically (with associated control), you'd want UCM to be able to work with this to tell the application about how these should be joined up to the rest of the system and so on.
