yes, sending raw PCM over a cable modem is likely to be unenjoyable, or at least spottily so. do the decoding as close to your audio device as you're able. with drawterm, that pretty much means your cpu server's got to be nearby, yes.
the perl install consists of two steps: perl.setup and replica/pull /n/dist/perl. it should be obvious what change is needed to that first script. for the replica file, compare to /dist/replica/network, particularly clientmount, for how the default keep-up-to-date mechanism deals with fossil. i *think* you should be able to just lift clientmount wholesale, but i've not tried that. maybe i will now... do you know what the audio device in the T22 is?
