I am trying to use VLC to capture the PC audio and stream it through LMS
to a squeezebox receiver (attached to hifi system)

I am running Ubuntu Linux 12.04 which has pulse audio by default and I
don't really want to fiddle with this.. 

After battling away for (many) hours I have ended up breaking it down
into sections. 

So,

parec -d alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo.monitor
--file-format=flac parec.flac

successfully captures the PC audio


cvlc /path/filename.mp3 --sout
"#standard{access=file,mux=raw,dst=st.mp3}" 

successfully saves the input file to disk, and 

cvlc alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo.monitor --sout
"#standard{access=file,mux=raw,dst=st.mp3}" 

captures the sound and saves it to file. So far so good :)

But, changing the output to http stream with 

cvlc /path/filename.mp3 –sout
="#standard{access=http,mux=raw,dst=:8079/st.mp3}"

and trying to play the radio URL in LMS with

"http://192.168.0.1:8079/st.mp3";

appears to "play" in LMS for about 13 seconds and then stops. I don't
get any sound, hiss or any other noise from the LMS/Squeezebox
receiver/hifi.

Any ideas?
