First of all, good to be back. Issues with MediaWiki, along with time constraints on fixing it, have prevented new articles from being created.

Anyway, working on several different Routers running OpenWRT 23.05.03 using PulseAudio, MPD (MPC), Bluetooth (BlueZ), and a bunch of other stuff including PulseMixer (works great on OpenWRT, even though the 'required' version is above the version of Python3 available in OpenWRT).

Starting Thoughts

The PulseAudio people are brilliant. But their documentation is a bit questionable. Case in point is the https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/User/Network/ page. It starts off on a big tangent, then seems to go off on other tangents before addressing the main concepts. That's cool and not a complaint against the PulseAudio people. It's just a little note to let people know who are reading it and just want to get RTP to work that they shouldn't get frustrated. Just keep reading, ignore most of the stuff at the beginning and you'll get there.
