Hello,
I just got KDE Plasma 6.1 on Arch Linux. When opening the audio volume system
tray widget it's now impossible for me to differentiate between the two inputs
in my Behringer UMC202HD audio interface.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open audio volume system tray widget
2. Look at the "microphone section" at the bottom
OBSERVED RESULT
You will see two items with exactly the same name: "UMC202HD 192k"
EXPECTED RESULT
You would see two items with different names:
1) "UMC202HD 192k Input 1"
2) "UMC202HD 192k Input 2"
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0
Qt Version: 6.7.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It's the change described here:
https://pointieststick.com/2024/02/02/this-week-in-kde-converging-on-a-release/
Here is a similar bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=487658 but the
person reporting it was not using Plasma 6.1 - so it must be different(?). Also
in their case the problem is described as "not great" in my case it's
"impossible" to differentiate.
____
The cause of this "bug" is probably the 'node.nick = "UMC202HD 192k"' property
in wpctl.

etc.
The "device.profile.description" property could differentiate between "Input 1"
and "Input 2"

Thank you for your help.
