padevchooser is dead. Don't use it.

Using an avahi-enabled network and the preferences in paprefs are all 
you need to make things work nicely (provided you disable all auth).

So record the mic input of a remote server? You can do that, but it's 
not a common use case.

Like I say padevchooser is rubbish and dead. It's no longer being 
developed. It has numerous design flaws. Using the *-discover modules in 
the pulse server which loads the tunnel-* modules automatically means 
the remove devices appear just like local ones in pavucontrol. This is 
the way forward.
