Suave socialite making broadcast? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

debonair

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'suave' is the definition.
(I know that suave can be written as debonair)

'socialite making broadcast?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'socialite' could be 'deb' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'deb' is located in the answer.
'broadcast?' could be 'onair' (I've seen this before) and 'onair' is present in the answer.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for debonair that I've seen before include "Chic" , "Light-hearted" , "I broaden out with self-confident manner" , "Carefree and elegant" , "Carefree - or in a bed (anag)" .)
