I don't know why it wouldn't be applicable, export_vars would work
whenever there is a bridge.  Also, are you sure you would need to use
a loopback?  What about transfer_after_bridge?

Seems like it might be cleaner.

I haven't used the fifo in a while, but again, I think it's just a
tool that eventually ends up with 2 channels being bridged.

Good luck and let us know what you find.
