I thought I'd discuss this here before logging it as a bug.<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#161616">I have a network of machines all running pulseaudio. One has just been upgraded </FONT>0.9.15 (and KDE 4)<FONT COLOR="#161616">. All machines are configured using paprefs to discover and announce using zeroconf. Also they are all configured to not require authentication (basically all the options on the first tab of paprefs are ticked).</FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#161616">The older machines are all running pulseaudio 0.9.10 and either GNOME or XFCE.</FONT><BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#161616">When I enable the network sink settings (as above) on the new machine, the CPU usage on all the machines skyrockets and there is a continuous stream of TCP traffic going between the new machine and all the others (verified using wireshark). </FONT>On one machine I get random sounds through the speakers. <FONT COLOR="#161616">I've had PA quit a number of times, randomly on various machines, due to high CPU usage. If I remove the new machine from the network it all calms down and the TCP traffic reverts to a burst of packets every second or so.</FONT><BR>
<BR>
Could this be an issue with using different versions of PA on the various machines, or is it a bug? I have tried setting up 2 machines with 0.9.15 but they can't see each other at all.<BR>
