I've been working for a while on getting sounds passed as transparently back and forth across my network as possible, and recently I decided to try to get a Linux server running ESD to talk to a PulseAudio server running on a Windows box (using Xming for the X session). The whole process is described here: http://www.the-love-shack.net/2007/08/23/forwarding-esd-played-sounds-to-a-remote-machine/ What I'd like to get is some feedback from some of the PA gurus here on the Pulse-related stuff in the post. Primarily the second half of the document (after "Update"). This was the best way that I could find to do what I wanted, but I keep thinking that there must be a better way, so I'm open to suggestions. Thanks for any feedback. -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY! Encrypted mail preferred. You can get my public key from any of the pgp.net keyservers.
