/** \page simple Simple API
 *
 * \section overv_sec Overview
 *
 * The simple API is designed for applications with very basic sound
 * playback or capture needs. It can only support a single stream per
 * connection and has no support for handling of complex features like
 * events, channel mappings and volume control. It is, however, very simple
 * to use and quite sufficient for many programs.
 *
 * \section conn_sec Connecting
 *
 * The first step before using the sound system is to connect to the
 * server. This is normally done this way:
 *
 * \code
 * pa_simple *s;
 * pa_sample_spec ss;
 *
 * ss.format = PA_SAMPLE_S16NE;
 * ss.channels = 2;
 * ss.rate = 44100;
 *
 * s = pa_simple_new(NULL,               // Use the default server.
 *                   "Fooapp",           // Our application's name.
 *                   PA_STREAM_PLAYBACK,
 *                   NULL,               // Use the default device.
 *                   "Music",            // Description of our stream.
 *                   &ss,                // Our sample format.
 *                   NULL,               // Use default channel map
 *                   NULL,               // Use default buffering attributes.
 *                   NULL,               // Ignore error code.
 *                   );
 * \endcode
 *
 * At this point a connected object is returned, or NULL if there was a
 * problem connecting.
 *
 * \section transfer_sec Transferring data
 *
 * Once the connection is established to the server, data can start flowing.
 * Using the connection is very similar to the normal read() and write()
 * system calls. The main difference is that they're called pa_simple_read()
 * and pa_simple_write(). Note that these operations always block.
 *
 * \section ctrl_sec Buffer control
 *
 * \li pa_simple_get_latency() - Will return the total latency of
 *                               the playback or record pipeline, respectively.
 * \li pa_simple_flush() - Will throw away all data currently in buffers.
 *
 * If a playback stream is used then the following operation is available:
 *
 * \li pa_simple_drain() - Will wait for all sent data to finish playing.
 *
 * \section cleanup_sec Cleanup
 *
 * Once playback or capture is complete, the connection should be closed
 * and resources freed. This is done through:
 *
 * \code
 * pa_simple_free(s);
 * \endcode
