That sounds interesting. Have you actually tried to change that particular line to say that the no_move flag is not turned on since you are building your own pulseaudio for ThinLinc anyway? I could easily test here if that fixes our issue with not being able to move the ThinLinc sink-input while not breaking any audio related features of ThinLinc.
