polybar_alsa_module doesn't work when more than one sound controller is enabled #101

Closed patrick-motard closed 3 weeks ago

When my usb stand mic and heaphones mic are enabled (not off) via pavucontrol -> configuration, the polybar_alsa_module doesn't set port correctly (switch between headphones and speakers).. I have a feeling indexs are messed up when controllers are enabled/disabled and a default is being set that I'm not aware of.

Turning off all controllers except built-in audio fixes the script.. but I want to be able to continue to toggle between headphones and speaker even when my mics are enabled.

i hate how difficult sound is in linux.. its by far what i spend the most time debugging in this project.
