Looks like there is a problem creating the tunnel with the version of pulse used in the ubuntu 9.04 distribution. If I do the following on ubuntu 10.04 it works: # # Create a tunnel to the remote sound card pactl load-module module-tunnel-sink "server=192.168.1.64 sink=alsa_output.pci_8086_293e_sound_card_0_alsa_playback_0 sink_name=sink-DGTM" # # Make it the default sink pacmd set-default-sink sink-DGTM # - Unfortunately this does not work on ubuntu 9.04. The syslog shows: Nov 13 14:45:33 ubuntu-JMRT pulseaudio[3473]: module-tunnel.c: Stream died. - In case someone is interested in seeing what happened when I tried this in 9.04, I have attached the complete terminal session as a text file. - So I am going to assume that there is a bug in this version. Although it does work with padevchooser, I can not get it to work from the command line. I also tried adding the following to /etc/pulse/default.pa and got the same results: ### Make some devices default #set-default-sink output load-module module-tunnel-sink server=192.168.1.64 sink=alsa_output.pci_8086_293e_sound_card_0_alsa_playback_0 sink_name=sink-DGTM set-default-sink sink-DGTM #set-default-source input - syslog: Nov 13 14:45:33 ubuntu-JMRT pulseaudio[3473]: module-tunnel.c: Stream died. - So, unless someone has a better suggestion, I am back to trying to figure out where to export PULSE_SERVER so that apps launched from gnome see it when I reboot. Any pulse/ubuntu guru's out there? :) - Dave -------------- next part -------------- An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed...
