Sorry I don't understand. On the "Old X Client Box" X Terminal I am not intending to have users other than root. In /etc/pulse/default.da I have: load-module module-x11-publish The logs don't look pretty though: pulseaudio[29098]: module.c: Failed to load module "module-x11-publish" (argument: ""): initialization failed.

This is the typical setup most > people want. I sit at the X terminal. I would only "SSH to "App server"" by going to a virtual console logging in and then "SSH to "App server"". I don't know why I would do that. What tends to happen is the X server on the X terminal gets a screen from xdm on the application server. To establish Pulseaudio on the Xterminal I SSH from the App server to the X terminal. Gmplayer runs on the application server and I want to be able to hear it, as well as see it, on the X terminal. Thanks for you help Guys.
