In theory, stream-restore shouldn't move streams if the sink is
already specified, see sink_input_new_hook_callback() in PA
module-stream-restore.c, but there might be something else applying
other policies? Yes, qemu could provide more context to the streams
with additional properties, which could help the policy. I think this
can be discussed seperately.
