This is untested, just an idea:
create ${HOME}/.pulse/default.pa.${SUN_SUNRAY_TOKEN} instead of
.pulse/default.pa
and start pulseaudio with the options -n -F
${HOME}/.pulse/default.pa.${SUN_SUNRAY_TOKEN}
I would like to add myself to Jens' request: could you make your patches for
newer linux kernels
available?
