Thanks for the reports Christophe, they are really helpful. This was by design. But maybe is better to display the device too, when there are more than one. Will need VDG response before making any change. The idea here was to use the generic terms "Speakers" and "Microphone" when there is only one input or output device. However that doesn't seem to be the case here. When we have multiple input devices or output devices, we should indeed show the device name for each one. In fact, it might make more sense to show the device name instead of the description. Yeah I was also super confused by the "Line Output" and thought it was playing on some not plugged in device.

Created attachment 125632 [details] new tray menu Using master. With the recent change, the device name are not informative. See the attached screenshot. "Analog output" and "Line Out" is not informative if you don't know which card provides them.
