Hey fellow Qubes-Users, I want to use an remote PULSE audio server to playback sound output. The server side is up & running. The connecting AppVM is based on the debian-8 template
Standard auto-discover does not work, probably because the AppVM tries to locate the remote server in the virtual internal networks of my Qubes OS. I tried to use a tunnel in /etc/pulse/default.pa: load-module module-tunnel-sink-new server=%SERVER_IP% sink_name=Remote channels=2 rate=44100 I noticed that Qubes itself uses PULSE audio. When I boot a VM, there is a Qubes VSINK device, but no tunnel. If I restart PULSE audio pulseaudio -k pulseaudio --start that device is gone, but the tunnel is shown. Even though the tunnel is shown, I cannot playback sound using it. I would like to have both devices (Qubes VSINK and the remote PULSE server) to choose from in pavucontrol Questions 1) What does Qubes do in order to show/connect to the VSINK? Is there a different config file which is loaded when an AppVM boots? 2) Is a tunnel the right/best option to connect to the remote PULSE audio server? 3) Is it a bug that a restart of pulseaudio does remove/not reconnect to Qubes VSINK? Thanks for reading and a happy new year PS: Sorry for the accidental post in https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/qubes-users/WGtXebJxbM4 Please delete those -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
