Hello,

I've been scouring the Forum trying to find an effective way to
redirect sound from my computer to the SqueezeBox device, as I'd like
to listen to movies and video games on my SqueezeBox (I have a nice
entertainment center audio setup and I don't want to have to get new
speakers just for the computer).  I've tried making a named pipe with
mkfifo and capturing ALSA output, but it doesn't seem to be working for
me (SlimServer semes to skip over the file after a slight pause).  So
I'm asking the SlimServer developers to make this process easier:  can
you guys put in an option, next to playing a music folder or album or
internet radio station, to play all sound coming from the SlimServer
host (or another user-specified host running  SlimServer)?  In other
words, in addition to SlimServer, I want to hear sound when I use, say,
Amarok or play a movie with Kaffeine or hear updates from GAIM 

Thanks in advance,
-- Roey
