"pacmd" allows you to enumerate outputs, set their volumes, and set the
default output. Among other things.

So an accessibility setup tool can easily say "press one" on the first
channel (paplay -d NAME AUDIOFILE), "press two" on the second, etc., and
then set the default to whatever the user actually heard (and wants).
