Hmm. Not so easy I suspect. While most sound cards map to a single device there are exceptions. pcspk is build-in and hda is two devices. Where do we stand in terms of QAPI support for -device btw? > If or when I finally get QAPI aliases merged, we can make this look nice > on the command line again by simply mapping everything to the top level > so that you don't necessarily need to use dotted keys like you would > initially, e.g. -audio backend.driver=sdl,model=hda could be optionally > reduced to -audio driver=sdl,model=hda. Yes, with aliasing available this would be a reasonable option. take care, Gerd
