       Most modules that create streams/devices support the following properties:

   sink_name,source_name
       Name for the sink (resp. source). Allowed characters in the name are a-z, A-Z, numbers, period (.) and
       underscore (_). The length must be 1-128 characters.

   format
       The sample format. The supported audio formats are:

   PCM
       • u8: unsigned 8-bit integer

       • aLaw: A-law encoded 8-bit integer

       • uLaw: μ-law encoded 8-bit integer

       • s16le: signed 16-bit little-endian integer

       • s16be: signed 16-bit big-endian integer

       • s16, s16ne: native-endian aliases for s16le or s16be

       • s16re: reverse-endian alias for s16le or s16be

       • float32le: 32-bit little-endian float

       • float32be: 32-bit big-endian float

       • float32, float32ne: native-endian aliases for float32le or float32be

       • float32re: reverse-endian alias for float32le or float32be

       • s32le: signed 32-bit little-endian integer

       • s32be: signed 32-bit big-endian integer

       • s32, s32ne: native-endian aliases for s32le or s32be

       • s32re: reverse-endian alias for s32le or s32be

       • s24le: signed 24-bit little-endian integer (note: ALSA calls this 'S24_3LE')

       • s24be: signed 24-bit big-endian integer (note: ALSA calls this 'S24_3BE')

       • s24, s24ne: native-endian aliases for s24le or s24be

       • s24re: reverse-endian alias for s24le or s24be

       • s24-32le:  signed  24-bit  little-endian  integer,  packed  into  a  32-bit  integer so that the 8 most
         significant bits are ignored (note: ALSA calls this 'S24_LE')

       • s24-32be: signed 24-bit big-endian integer, packed into a 32-bit integer so that the 8 most significant
         bits are ignored (note: ALSA calls this 'S24_BE')

       • s24-32, s24-32ne: native-endian aliases for s24-32le or s24-32be

       • s24-32re: reverse-endian alias for s24-32le or s24-32be

   Compressedaudioformats
       Below is a list of all supported compressed formats. The code at the  beginning  of  each  line  is  used
       whenever  a  textual  identifier  for  a  format  is needed (for example in configuration files or on the
       command line). The formats whose identifier ends with -iec61937 have to be wrapped in IEC  61937  frames,
       which makes the compressed audio behave more like normal PCM audio.

       • ac3-iec61937: Dolby Digital (DD / AC-3 / A/52)

       • eac3-iec61937: Dolby Digital Plus (DD+ / E-AC-3)

       • mpeg-iec61937: MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 Part 3 (not MPEG-2 AAC)

       • dts-iec61937: DTS

       • mpeg2-aac-iec61937: MPEG-2 AAC (supported since PulseAudio 4.0)

       • truehd-iec61937: Dolby TrueHD (added in PulseAudio 13.0, but doesn't work yet in practice)

       • dtshd-iec61937: DTS-HD Master Audio (added in PulseAudio 13.0, but doesn't work yet in practice)

       • pcm:  PCM  (not  a  compressed  format,  but listed here, because pcm is one of the recognized encoding
         identifiers)

       • any: (special identifier for indicating that any encoding can be used)

   rate
       The sample rate.

   channels
       Number of audio channels.

   channel_map
       A channel map. A list of comma-separated channel names. The currently defined channel  names  are:  left,
       right,  mono,  center,  front-left,  front-right,  front-center, rear-center, rear-left, rear-right, lfe,
       subwoofer, front-left-of-center, front-right-of-center, side-left, side-right, aux0, aux1 to aux15,  top-
       center, top-front-left, top-front-right, top-front-center, top-rear-left, top-rear-right, top-rear-center

   sink_properties,source_properties
       Set  additional properties of the sink/source. For example, you can set the description directly when the
       module is loaded by setting this parameter.

       load-module module-alsa-sink sink_name=headphones sink_properties=device.description=Headphones

       PipeWire's Pulseaudio emulation implements several Pulseaudio modules. It only supports its own built-in
       modules, and cannot load external modules written for Pulseaudio.

       The built-in modules can be loaded using Pulseaudio client programs, for example pactl load-module
       <module-name> <module-options>. They can also added to pipewire-pulse.conf, typically by a drop-in file
       in ~/.config/pipewire/pipewire-pulse.conf.d/ containing the module name and its arguments

       # ~/.config/pipewire/pipewire-pulse.conf.d/custom.conf

       pulse.cmd = [
           { cmd = "load-module" args = "module-null-sink sink_name=foo" flags = [ ] }
       ]

       To list all modules currently loaded, with their arguments:

       pactl list modules

       For a short list of loaded modules:

       pactl list modules short

       Modules may be unloaded using either the module-name or index number:

       pactl load-module <module-name> <parameters>
       pactl unload-module <module-name|index#>
