You would want to set ssh to its least secure modes for this kind of thing to minimise the security overhead, it has many relevant options. I have not tried it, just read the docs a bit while looking for a similar solution, but if both machines can be configured correctly it may be a way to do it ... no idea if that would be better or worse latency than jack or pulse with their various networking options. I would guess all options involve some buffering, and it depends which system buffers the least, and direct forwarding of the device seems a reasonable candidate for that. Simon
