[ Reason ]

Trivial fix for a high-visibility (high-audibility?) issue with certain 
Bluetooth speakers.

[ Impact ]

In trixie, using gnome-control-center to test a mono Bluetooth speaker 
doesn't find a sound clip named "audio-channel-mono" and falls back to 
playing a generic test clip containing white noise. Unfortunately, 
playing compressed audio through an audio device that is expecting 
uncompressed audio *also* sounds like white noise, so it's easy to 
misinterpret this as your speaker being misconfigured or broken.

The proposed fix is to add a symlink so the "Front, Centre" sound clip 
(originally used when testing surround-sound) will be played instead.

[ Tests ]

All my Bluetooth devices are stereo (or at least pretend to be), so I 
can't directly test this, but I checked the gnome-control-center source 
code to confirm that it is looking for "audio-channel-mono", and checked 
that playing /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/audio-channel-mono.oga 
now has the desired result.

An equivalent change has been in Ubuntu since 2017, and was upstreamed 
to Debian experimental during the freeze. The proposed package is a 
straightforward backport of a version that has been in unstable since 
2025-07-31 and testing since 2025-08-13 (I almost asked for an unblock 
during freeze, but I thought this was more like 13.1 material).

[ Risks ]

I can't see how adding the symlink could do any harm. It's a 1-line 
change, the rest of the diff is all metadata.

[ Checklist ]
  [x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
  [x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable
