Thanks Fritz.<br><br>I've been using x2go very successfully with windows, linux both of which have excellent sound at the client.<br>The x2go os-x still does not support pulseaudio so its sound is not near as good.<br>
<br>x2go implements their own server but they use the NX transport libraries.<br><br>Is there any possibility of looking at their source code and seeing how they implemented Windows & Linux Pulseaudio<br>and perhaps utilize that with the FreeNX server ?<br>

The problem is *not* integration into an NX client/server. After all,<br>
it's just some TCP port that has to be tunneled. As an author of an<br>
NX-Client myself (OpenNX), I naturally want to support multiple<br>
platforms where Windows as well as OSX are major targets. Early this<br>
year, I invested considerable time trying to build a stable PulseAudio<br>
on Windows (using mingw both natively and cross-compiling) - without any<br>
luck. Unfortunately, the only version of PulseAudio that works<br>
(partially stable) on Windows is an ancient 0.9.6. Even *that* version<br>
is only available as a binary from Cendio - The sources that are<br>
available are however incomplete (The included libatomic_ops doesn't<br>
even build). Although the PulseAudio website *claims* Windows being a<br>
supported OS, that is definitively *not* the case. Looking at the source<br>
of more recent versions, it appears, that the PulseAudio developers have<br>
lost their interest for supporting Windows anymore. (More and more<br>
Linux-specific changes).<br>
<br>
Therefore:<br>
Until *current* PulseAudio supports at least Linux+OSX+Windows, there's<br>
no chance.<br>
<br>
