you can always change the channels in pulseaudio configs. The system wide
config is at /etc/pulse/default.pa

I'd change it from:

load-module module-jackdbus-detect

to:

load-module module-jackdbus-detect channels=2

This is initially to be used on Ubuntu 13.04, which will be shipping
pulseaudio 3.0, if I can get people to agree on that.
I'd be interested in suggesting this change to the main source as well.
This is however just a hack.
It would be nicer if you could set different profiles for the module in
the PA mixer, just as you can for different audio devices. Until then, I
believe that people will prefer a stereo interface by default over a
surround type.

Another nice change in pulseaudio 3.0 is that from what it seems, jack is
able to grab a device from PA without any problems.
