Hi, I am currently trying to attempt to redirect pulse audio sound from a server to a client through ssh. I am bit unclear on what the correct way is of doing it. Some guides on the net refer to paprefs and some refer to socat and others again refer to loading modules via pactl. There is also something about using libpulse to get it automatically setup via X11 forwarding under ssh. I have tried different solutions without success so far. The server is running Ubuntu Linux 10.04 without a physical sound card installed. The client is running Maemo Linux Fremantle with a physical sound card installed. Client audio has been tested and confirmed working. paprefs does exist on the server but not on the client. Pulseaudio on the client seems not to be configured with "per-user" sessions. Pulseaudio on the server is configured for "per-user" sessions. The pulse socket on the client is on /var/run/pulse/native. The server's /etc/pulse/client.conf looks like this: ----------------------------------------------------- ; default-sink = ; default-source = ; default-server = ; autospawn = yes ; daemon-binary = /usr/bin/pulseaudio ; extra-arguments = --log-target=syslog ; cookie-file = ; enable-shm = yes ; shm-size-bytes = 0 # setting this 0 will use the system-default, usually 64 MiB ----------------------------------------------------- One question: when modifying the pulse configuration via paprefs, what files does it modify? Anyways, what is the easiest method to get pulse audio on a server redirected to the client using ssh? qiet72
