I have Pulseaudio on my Linux Box and have enabled the RTP stream. I want to use VLC Media Player on Windows (although the platform shouldn't matter) to connect to the stream and play it on my Windows box. What URI do I use?

Please consult the Pulseaudio documentation for Pulseaudio specific information.

If I'm not mistaken PulseAudio uses RTP L16. You'll need VLC 0.9.0 or more recent for that.

That's done it. Thanks.
There's a latency of about 1.5 seconds (as would be expected), but it works great.

It's 1000 (1 second) by default, but lower values should work fine on a LAN.
