Hi everyone, I want to do the following - I want to stream some audio that I generate via playback on my machine (Totem playing a clip) via programs supporting popular protocols like Empathy (jabber) or Skype to other people. There was a recent thread in the mailing list about loading loopback module (pactl load-module module-loopback) and then fiddling with pavucontrol. However I just cannot guess how/what to fiddle with. After loading module-loopback the recording tab in pavucontrol gets "Loopback to Internal Audio Analog Stereo from" and I get to choose from "Internal Audio Analog Stereo", "Monitor of Internal Audio Analog Stereo", "Monitor Source of Simultaneous Output to Internal Audio Analog Stereo". These show when I select either "Show All Streams" or "Show Virtual Strems", however nothing is shown in "Applications". I would like to make for example only Totem a source similar to a microphone that I can set as an input device. Do I have to create some kind of virtual device that Totem should output to and then set it as a source? Is there an online example of this? I have been staring at the documentation for two days but the Eurika moments still eludes me. Some ideas or pointers? Kind regards: al_shopov
