[SOLVED] pulsaudio master channel

I have a blutooth speaker connected to my laptop sometimes. The hardware buttons on the laptop control the soundcard device normaly (can be changed to a diffenrent stream or device of course- in my case with kmix- but thats kind of uncomfortable as it requires user action whenever I connect or disconnect the speaker). Now what I like would be something like a master chanell covvering all active streams in pulseaudio and control this chanell via the hardware buttons.
Any other solution appreciated as well!

Thanks!

Re: [SOLVED] pulsaudio master channel

Ok, another simple one.. I just set the speaker device as master, whenever it is present it becams master, if not system falls back on the internal soundcard device.. so the hardware buttons always control the correct output.
