Hello everyone,

I was wondering if its possible to just create a "virtual" sound card
using alsa which will just sent its audio stream to other computer
(using TCP/IP or UDP for example). On the other end there would be
some kind of server (or just nc -u -l -p 31337 | aplay ). I want to do
it on alsa layer because other aps using alsa will get immediate
support.

It should be something like described in

http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/Network

but with transparent support for all alsa based applications. I dont
care about syncronization or transmission delay. Any pointers as how
this could be done in alsa ?
