The difference is that in the cases that work, you connect paplay
directly to the remote pulseaudio server. In the stuttering case you
connect to the local pulseaudio, and use the tunnel sink. For some
reason tunnel sinks are more suspectible to stuttering than direct
connections - it has been that way for a while, but nobody has really
investigated what the reason is.
