These are the two names here.

Your slaves name is wrong. It's not the name assigined to the sink
itself which you listed above.

Also, I believe that the combine sink no longer needs a master argument
and you can support all the devices as slaves.

 load-module module-combine
slaves=alsa_output.pci-0000_00_06.1.analog-stereo,tunnel.hyperstream-laptop.local.alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo#

No you're not, you're using a made up name :p

Does the tunnel work by itself? Have you made sure that it is physically
working before you try and use it as a slave of the combined sink? You
should test each stage.

You can test easily via:

PULSE_SINK="tunnel.hyperstream-laptop.local.alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo"
mplayer /path/to/a/file.mp3

(or any PA application)

You could also just produce some sound locally then move the stream to
the tunnel from the "Playback" tab in pavucontrol.

Hope this helps.
