I created the following IfThenElse script:
What this does it the following:
- MPD: If my MPD box is playing, power on stereo, wait 5 seconds and switch to the right channel.
- XBMC: If xbmc is playing (or a remote pc (aka desktop) outputs audio via the local pulseaudio server) power on stereo, wait 5 seconds and switch to right channel.
- Neither MPD and XBMC are playing, turn off stereo.
