Hi, i am using a network setup of pulseaudio, having

load-module module-native-protocol-tcp auth-ip-acl=127.0.0.1;192.168.1.2

on my laptop(192.168.1.5) and

load-module module-tunnel-sink server=192.168.1.5 sink_name=remote

on my desktop(192.168.1.2).

The problem is that though most of the sound (music, videos) is playing 
fine, but every game sounds pretty choppy.
Here is a sample of sound, recorded from laptop using pulseaudio monitor 
as a source:

(3.2Mb)

Could someone please guide me to understanding the source of this 
choppiness and suggest some solutions?

Thanks.
