/** \page subscribe Event Subscription
 *
 * \section overv_sec Overview
 *
 * The application can be notified, asynchronously, whenever the internal
 * layout of the server changes. Possible notifications are described in the
 * \ref pa_subscription_event_type and \ref pa_subscription_mask
 * enumerations.
 *
 * The application sets the notification mask using pa_context_subscribe()
 * and the function that will be called whenever a notification occurs using
 * pa_context_set_subscribe_callback().
 *
 * The callback will be called with a \ref pa_subscription_event_type_t
 * representing the event that caused the callback. Clients can examine what
 * object changed using \ref PA_SUBSCRIPTION_EVENT_FACILITY_MASK. The actual
 * event type can then be extracted with \ref PA_SUBSCRIPTION_EVENT_TYPE_MASK.
 * Please note that the masked values are integers, not flags (so you will
 * check the object/event type using a comparison not a binary AND). For
 * example, the callback might look something like:
 *
@verbatim
void my_subscription_callback(pa_context *c, pa_subscription_event_type_t t,
                              uint32_t idx, void *userdata) {
    if ((t & PA_SUBSCRIPTION_EVENT_FACILITY_MASK) == PA_SUBSCRIPTION_EVENT_SOURCE) {
        if ((t & PA_SUBSCRIPTION_EVENT_TYPE_MASK) == PA_SUBSCRIPTION_EVENT_NEW) {
            ... a source was added, let's do stuff! ...
        }
    }
}
