I have a similar thing I do sometimes. I log on to my server from the
laptop to run a music player on the server and I want the sound output
on the laptop.
I tried streaming directly back over the ssh connection, but I
couldn't get it to not stutter. But running a temporary pulseaudio on
the server with a tunnel back worked.
This is probably not the solution to the original question in this
thread, but I thought I'd show what I did anyway.
I run a script called qlremote to run quodlibet on the server:
# qlremote
ssh server -R 14713:localhost:4713 ql
On the server, ql is a script that sets up PA and runs quodlibet:
# ql
pulsetunnel
export PULSE_SERVER=/tmp/pulse-david/native
quodlibet
pulseaudio -k
pulsetunnel is a short name for the longer command
pulseaudio -n \
-L "module-native-protocol-unix" \
-L "module-tunnel-sink server=localhost:14713
sink=alsa_output.pci_8086_284b_sound_card_0_alsa_playback_0 format=s16le
channels=2 rate=44100 sink_name=tunnel.krank
channel_map=front-left,front-right" \
-D
This works rather well, even from over the internet. But it would be
nice if there were a simpler way...
