But how do I programatically effect the same thing as changing > the Default Server in the padevchooser applet? You shouldn't be using padevchooser anymore. It is obsolete. padevchooser basically does what pax11publish does: manipulate a few properties of the X11 root window. You can view them with "xprop -root | grep PULSE". Manipulating X11 root window properties is pretty easy from your own programs. Just check the pax11publish source code for more information.
