Why do you want to have an xrdp sink instead of using > a tunnel sink that we already support in PulseAudio? I looked at the tunnel sink module. It requires another pulse audio server on the other side and it uses TCP. In RDP, the audio is built into the protocol. I looked at all the modules in pulse audio. I didn't see one that fits. The FIFO module comes close. What I need is a unix domain socket module with a very simple API for communication. I also need to run many on a server at one time so the unix domain socket name is in an environment variable. Is there something like this now? If not, can I submit one? It does not need to be branded "xrdp" Jay
