No, I have not had time to do the sink. There is another option I was going to try. Pulse has an asynchronous interface that is much better than the simple interface. I still think the sink method would look better. The simple and asynchronous methods both require that you use the "dumby" sink. > 2. Are people using the audio support? Any problems?

In responding to > this question, don't assume that I know what I'm talking about. That is absolutely possible. xrdp-chansrv has a unix domain socket for each session /tmp/xrdp_chansrv_audio_socket_10 /tmp/xrdp_chansrv_audio_socket_11 /tmp/xrdp_chansrv_audio_socket_12 one for each session. You can connect to it from any process that user runs and send audio data. Pulse just seemed like a logical first step.
