Not quite, now I use the loop of module-rtp-send to be able to hear what 
I am saying. This sound stays quite long in the buffer of 
module-rtp-recv and it is a bit disturbing to hear your own voice with 
100ms latency. I was just wondering if there is a way to pass that 
buffer and get the stream directly to local sink.
