Bug Description

Impact:
Some configurations can't be selected with the new sound configuration dialog

Test Case:
 1) Go to output tab and select "Digital Output (S/PDIF)"
 2) Go to input tab and select "iec958-digital-input"
 3) Go back to output tab, notice that "Digital Output (S/PDIF)" is no longer selected.

Regression potential:
The profiles listed in the sound capplet could be wrong or incomplete or not correctly applied

---

More info:
When selecting "Digital Output (S/PDIF)", soundnua sets the card's profile to "output:iec958-stereo+input:analog-stereo". When selecting "iec958-digital-input", soundnua sets the card's profile to "output:analog-stereo+input:iec958-stereo", instead of the expected "output:iec958-stereo+input:iec958-stereo".

As selecting iec958-stereo on one side unexpectedly flips it back to analog-stereo on the other side there is no way to select "output:iec958-stereo+input:iec958-stereo".

For reference, the output of "pactl list". It's the Built-In Audio card ("HDA ATI SB") I'm referring to in the bug report.

Ok, I've uploaded that to quantal so it gets testing, we can look at backporting for a precise SRU next

Could anyone confirm the quantal version fixes the issue and doesn't create new problems before we backport it?

does the patch fix the bug which cannot select analog mono duplex in unity but can select in gnome?

It should, yes.

Ok, I've uploaded that patch as a SRU for precise since the quantal testing didn't show any regression so far

Could those who had the issue check if the SRU fix it for them?

I can't test since I don't have the hardware for, but there are no regression here so maybe we should set it verified on that basis?

Sorry for the delay - I've been on vacation.

I can confirm that with -0.4 I can select digital duplex (by selecting digital out and digital in) and with -0.3 I can't do that.
