[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

PulseAudio 11.1 changes:

 * Fix a crash in filter modules related to flat volumes and volume
   sharing
 * Fix a crash when the bluetooth adapter reports weird MTU size
 * Disable bluetooth MTU autodetection by default
 * Add mixer handling back for hardware that doesn't have any alsa-lib
   configuration
 * Prioritize USB devices over built-in sound cards (11.0 was supposed
   to have this feature, but the implementation turned out to be
   incomplete)
