The tunnel crashes can be fixed by applying these two patches:
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2015-January/022881.html
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2015-January/022882.html
The rtp crash is something else. If you know how to get backtraces with
gdb, a bug report in bugzilla with a backtrace would be helpful.
