But with something like a media player gstreamer

started every time a new song starts and the client that played the previous
song goes away.
I suppose it has to do with the pipeline architecture of gstreamer.
Yes, generally, although it is possible to keep the pipeline live in
gstreamer, a lot of applications don't seem to.
It isn't necessarily a problem with the patchbay though because you
can use regular expressions - eg. my current patchbay uses -
out_jackaudiosink\d*_1
out_jackaudiosink\d*_2
The recently added port connection property on jackaudiosink also
allows to do a similar thing from the gstreamer side.
Looks like Clementine supports setting the audio sink, but wonder if
it allows arbitrary properties on it -
