34 | | == Test Sound Source Setup == |
35 | | The easiest way of testing that a system is capable of forwarding and receiving sound is on a Posix system (Linux, BSD, etc). |
36 | | Using the {{{XPRA_SOUND_TEST}}} environment variable, we can instruct the xpra server to use a fake sound source instead of hooking into a pulseaudio server (which we do not have to / want to start, yet): |
37 | | {{{ |
38 | | XPRA_SOUND_TEST=1 xpra start :10 --no-pulseaudio |
39 | | }}} |
40 | | Then we can just attach the client from the same system: |
41 | | {{{ |
42 | | xpra attach |
43 | | }}} |
44 | | You should then hear a constant (rather annoying) tone. |
45 | | Getting this far ensures that sound forwarding does work on this system, albeit from a fake source instead of a pulseaudio server. |
