update to FAQ about Linux to Windows

Thanks Tanu.  I couldn't get module-tunnel-sink to work right on the 
Linux side, not sure what I was doing wrong.

So I put default-server back in client.conf and wrote a shell script to 
kill any pulseaudio and uncomment/comment that line. Since I only use 
the local Line-In sometimes, and I don't really need to hear the line-in 
signal (the source has its own speaker nearby), this works well.

Now I leave default-server set, so I can have Linux sound go to Windows 
box with the speakers.  Then I run the script to enable Line-In on the 
Linux side when I need it.

Thanks for all your work on PA and thanks to all the other developers!
