The code would accidentally mute my browser YouTube audio sink when a spotify ad would come on. Now it properly identifies the PulseAudio sink index corresponding to Spotify, by using
pacmd list-sink-inputs
, thengrep
to find lines near"application.name = spotify"
, then usinggrep
andawk
to extract the proper sink index to muteEDIT: In the final commit, it also now loops through all spotify sinks (there can be multiple) and mutes/unmutes all of them, therefore blocking ads more powerfully than ever before
