Why encode it like an HTTP request?  That seems a bit silly to me.
Normally RFC822 (i think that's the correct one) type fields are
delimited by semicolons or commas.  I'd suggest looking at RTSP and/or
RTP docs and see how they do this.  My recollection is that it's
something like:

ice-audio-info: bitrate=128; samplerate=44100; channels=2

which is a lot more human friendly, and only slightly more difficult to
parse.

Just my two cents :)
