[pulseaudio-discuss] How to Use a Tunnel Source

[Jim Duda]

If I open PulseAudioManger on host "jim", I can seet that I have a "source" which is identified as "tunnel.asterisk.local.sphinx_record.monitor".  I want my application to attach to this "source", however, my application can only use ALSA.  As such, I assumed I need to use the pulseaudio alsa plugin.  What do I need to put into my .asoundrc file in order to address "tunnel.asterisk.local.sphinx_record.monitor"?
