Is any of these three services on the local machine? Do the other machines run Avahi or native Bonjour? > Is it something that other people already experienced?

Use this: tcpdump -i eth0 -n -w avahi.tcpdump udp port 5353 And send me the file avahi.tcpdump that this call creates. Start tcpdump shortly before (10s) calling avahi-browse, and stop it shortly after (10s). Does the local machine run any application that browses for _daap._tcp during the whole time? (i.e. the service-discovery-applet or rhythmbox or whatever) One final request: could you please do a "killall -USR1 avahi-daemon" once before doing that avahi-browse call (10s before) and once after (10s after) and sent me the ouput the daemon prints to syslog? It contains the mDNS cache.
