also, I looked for the error you described, and it's not present, but I do see this:
2539:D: [pulseaudio] alsa-util.c: snd_pcm_hw_params_set_channels(8) failed: Invalid argument 2542:D: [pulseaudio] alsa-util.c: snd_pcm_hw_params_set_channels(8) failed: Invalid argument 2545:D: [pulseaudio] alsa-util.c: snd_pcm_hw_params_set_channels(8) failed: Invalid argument 2548:D: [pulseaudio] alsa-util.c: snd_pcm_hw_params_set_channels(8) failed: Invalid argument 2549:I: [pulseaudio] alsa-util.c: Failed to set hardware parameters on plug:surround71:0: Invalid argument
I imagine this is because my output device is a 7.1 device, not a 5.1 device, but it is still strange that it's even attempting to set a mode that isn't what I configured, but instead the highest-channel mode.
