That's what I wanted, as well.

I've attached the output of pulseaudio -vvvv from both viper and duke from the point where I clear the option to "Make discoverable network sound devices available locally" on duke and re-enable it to where it finally stops spouting out things. It doesn't tell ME much, save that the "Stream died" (for who-knows-what reason). One thing I did notice that was different was that on viper, PS kept spouting out the line "Checking for dead streams ..." that duke did not. -- Richi Plana -------------- next part -------------- I: module.c: Unloading "module-zeroconf-discover" (index: #26).
