Hi, I tried the pulse cookie method. Here is what I did: - on the local sound server side, I copied ~/.pulse-cookie to the remote sound client to /etc/pulse/pulse-cookie-n900 - on the remote sound client side, I added the following two lines to /etc/pulse/client.conf: default-server = localhost cookie-file = /etc/pulse/pulse-cookie-n900 - on the remote sound client side, I made /etc/pulse/pulse-cookie-n900 permissions 644 - on the local sound server side, I did a ssh -X -R 4713:localhost:4713 <remote-sound-client> "PULSE_LOG=99 pactl stat" The following output of "pactl stat" follows: -------------------------------------------------- Using shared memory pool with 1024 slots of size 64.0 KiB each, total size is 64.0 MiB, maximum usable slot size is 65472 Trying to connect to localhost:4713... SHM possible: yes Protocol version: remote 16, local 16 Negotiated SHM: no Connection failure: Connection terminated -------------------------------------------------- and pulseaudio daemon reports "protocol error, kicking client" So no luck with cookies either. I could try and upgrade pulseaudio on the local server side, but it is going to be tricky. br, Quinn On Mon, May 23, 2011 at 10:29 AM, Colin Guthrie <gmane at colin.guthr.ie>wrote: > 'Twas brillig, and Quinn Plattel at 23/05/11 05:52 did gyre and gimble: > > HI. > > > > Last post on this thread, then I will start a new one. > > I managed to cut down the delay considerably by simplifying the commands: > > > > local sound server: ssh -L 5901:localhost 5901 -L 1234:localhost:1234 > > <remote sound client> *parec | nc -l 1234" > > local sound server: nc localhost 1234 | pacat > > > > The advantage with this is that the volume can be controlled manually > > with the local sound server's volume control and the delay is cut down > > to 3-5 seconds. > > > The commands and procedure I outlined before is working fine and is free > from bizarre work arounds.
