I have a computer in an attic running Ubuntu 16.04 - this is a desktop 
computer. It has two radios attached and I want to hear the sound from 
either/both of them on my Windows 10 laptop in the basement. 

So far, I have XRDP installed on the desktop, I connect using Remote Desktop 
Connection from the laptop to the desktop. In my .xsession file I have this:
export PULSE_SERVER=192.168.1.108
which is the IP address of my laptop. On the laptop, I run a PulseAudio daemon 
from a command window. This works fine for the Software Defined Radio - it uses 
an app to generate audio on the RFSERVER01, and that audio is (somehow 
magically) sent to the laptop. This is working fine.

Meanwhile, the second radio puts out an analog audio line-out, which I have 
connected to the line-in jack of the desktop. I haven't figured out how to get 
that over the network. I tried pavucontrol on the desktop, but it just shows 
the input devices which are on the laptop. Somehow PulseAudio is linking both 
the input and output devices from the laptop to the desktop - that's fine for 
the first radio, but not for the second. How can I get the Line-In from the 
desktop to the laptop (without messing up what's already working).

If it matters, I know a ton about windows and networking, but not so much about 
Linux.

Thanks,
Jake
