Hi!
Lately I discovered the "Pro" profile for my good old RME HDSP9652, which makes it finally working great with pipewire.
There is just one thing: I dislike the counting of the channels starting at 0. Is there a possibility to make it start from 1?
Are you trying to use them programmatically or by pretty name?
Phew! Guess, I'm using them by their "pretty names" if I plumber
things together with carla or qpwgraph, right?
As far as I understood the index (0) is as it is but you could rename the pretty name with wireplumber.Okay. Good, there's a possibility! Unfortunately, the usability described in your link seems a bit tricky for me. I don't even know, which config-file the people are working with.

There seem to be GUI-tools, as well. Just stumbled upon "Simple Wireplumber GUI" to change the "pretty names".
The downside of this little app:
If you wish to erase all its changes, you can just run on your terminal:
flatpak run io.github.dyegoaurelio.simple-wireplumber-gui --clear-settings
And then, reboot your system."
I still hope, there is a central place to configure names - would be really awful if every app just runs it's own scripts to achieve name-changing. That just smells like predictable chaos, especially, if the settings stay persistent even if the app's already uninstalled…
I love Linux for the possibility to keep config-files in the
/home-directory for years and even across distributions. At least
most times, it just works!
Greets!
