Ya, but if I loose a port and also get a jack-sink that says a lot too.
Pulse should be able when it detects jack-sink/source be looking for what
port is configured that it no longer has access to.

On the other hand, I would be happy if the jackbridge could be set as
default whenever it shows up and if the module that detects jack would at
least pass parameters to the two modules (source/sink) such as number of
channels and naming. If Pulse finds a port blocked that it is sending a
stream to, it could look for the new default and switch the stream there.

I wish my coding skills were at a place I could patch it.
