[Feature request] Allow to select “running” sinks

[jirutka]

pamixer currently allows to control the default sink or any other sink specified by its index or name. There’s also option --get-default-sink that prints the default sink.

I’d like to have the same for the currently running sink(s). At least --get-running-sinks or additional column with the state of the sinks in the --list-sinks output would be beneficial.

I added a state column for the options --list-sources and --list-sinks.

Thanks!

Can you please release a new version?

So this is fixed in 1.6?

Sort of, you can now do:

pamixer --list-sinks | grep Running | cut -d' ' -f1 | xargs pamixer --increase=1 --sink

for example.

Would still be nice to just be able to:

pamixer --running --increase=1

IMO.
