Hello! I use X forwarding and I have setup pulse audio for network sound. It works, but I think the design of how it works is bad. Let me explain. Let A be a computer, which I am using and B be a computer, which I want to connect to. This is how X forwarding works: A and B both run an X server. A connects to B and the X session from B is transferred through the netwrok to A. A is a _client_ of B, hence B is a _server_. This client-server relation of A and B has nothing to do with the fact that A and B both run an X server. Pulse audio network transfer works exactly the opposite way. A wants to play sound from B and B has to connect to A. I don't understand. A wants something from B, why should B start the connection? This may seem like a stupid play with the words, but this design flaw causes, that you can't use PA over NAT without workarounds. Lukas
