 Combining your Pulse Audio sinks (outputs) and giving you another, combined set of speakers that looks like another sound card.

 Perfect so that you can direct output to headphones and speakers at the same time.
 Use pavucontrol to even end output of different apps (or different browser windows) to different speakers at the same time.
 Listen to one youtube video out of your speakers while gaming in your headphones!

 See http://www.deseret-tech.com/journal/pulseaudio-combine-sinks-for-simultaneous-output/ for tips.
 This command actually gives you a third combined sink.
