How can I setup pulseaudio to use both digital and analog ports from 2 profiles?
1
I have recently installed Debian Testing with Xfce as my desktop environment. I use the built-in Realtek sound card of my motherboard.
On Windows, or when I tried Debian with GNOME, I was able to easily switch between the digital and analog outputs (S/PDIF and Headphones), however so far I have only been able to do that by switching profiles using pavucontrol.
The Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output profile shows only one port: Digital Output (S/PDIF).
The Analog Stereo Output profile shows two ports: Line Out (unplugged) and Headphones (plugged in).
Is there a way to have the Headphones and S/PDIF ports on one profile or is that the way pulseaudio works?

You can write your own profiles, see here. I haven't done this myself, so I can't give step-by-step instructions.

For anyone else finding this question in search of a solution, this is what worked for me.
Open /usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/profile-sets/default.conf, and add this to it:
[Profile output:analog-stereo+output:iec958-stereo+input:analog-stereo]
description = Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output + Analog Stereo Duplex
output-mappings = analog-stereo iec958-stereo
input-mappings = analog-stereo
This will create a profile that'll include Analog Stereo Input + Output and Digital Stereo Output.
To apply the changes restart the PulseAudio daemon:
pulseaudio --kill
pulseaudio --start
Now you should see be able to use the new profile in pavucontrol, and use both outputs at the same time.

For anyone else finding this question in search of a solution, this is what worked for me.
Open /usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/profile-sets/default.conf, and add this to it:
[Profile output:analog-stereo+output:iec958-stereo+input:analog-stereo]
description = Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output + Analog Stereo Duplex
output-mappings = analog-stereo iec958-stereo
input-mappings = analog-stereo
This will create a profile that'll include Analog Stereo Input + Output and Digital Stereo Output.
To apply the changes restart the PulseAudio daemon:
pulseaudio --kill
pulseaudio --start
Now you should see be able to use the new profile in pavucontrol, and use both outputs at the same time.

You can write your own profiles, see here. I haven't done this myself, so I can't give step-by-step instructions.
