Description

At the moment there seems to be no way of removing the "no-sound" entry in the pseudo-GUI. I don't really need it, since I would just use mute if I want no audio to be played.

Bottom part shows the "no-audio" entry I'm referring to.

Expected behavior of the wanted feature

To be able to set a flag that causes the pseudo-GUI to only cycle through actual audio streams.

Research direction

No source file or test is named in the issue. Trace the pseudo-GUI's audio-stream cycling and existing option or flag handling; done means a new flag lets users omit the no-sound entry while normal cycling still works.
