well, alsa supports getting sound from different programs (more than often I find myself listening to a network stream radio in vlc while playing a flash game in ff which I cannot mute... :-S horrible) so I can't see the diff on this matter, the server will dump the pkgs sent to him to the card depending on the config in ~/.asoundrc > Sent: Thursday, March 26, 2015 at 9:37 AM > From: "Anders Genell" <anders.genell@xxxxxxxxx> > To: daggs <daggs@xxxxxxx> > Cc: "lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, "alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: Re: over the net sound stream > > I haven't tried it myself, but you might use netcat as mentioned previously but within asoundrc through the 'copy' and/or 'file' pcm as described here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/tutorial_recording_computer_playback_on_linux.html#Using_the_ALSA_PCM_file > > For the sending side it should be relatively easy.
