Win32: Stream errror: No such entity

[zhum]

I try to run pulseaudio server on winXP and clients on Linux (debian etch). Cookie file is copied from Linux. default.pa on WinXP:

load-module module-native-protocol-tcp listen=0.0.0.0
load-module module-waveout

On Linux side I had set PULSE_SERVER=winxp-ip-address. If I run pactl stat, I get:

Currently in use: 3 blocks containing 188.3 KiB bytes total.
Allocated during whole lifetime: 97420 blocks containing 751.2 MiB bytes total.
Sample cache size: 0 B
User name: Super
Host Name: SRCC-ADMIN
Server Name: pulseaudio
Server Version: 0.9.6
Default Sample Specification: s16le 2ch 44100Hz
Default Sink: wave_output
Default Source: wave_input
Cookie: 6ba2fbbb

Some sounds I can hear, e.g. system bell under Gnome. But I cannot play any music via paplay (pcm wav files) or gstream applications:

$ paplay -v a.wav 
Using sample spec 's16le 2ch 44100Hz'
Connection established.
Stream errror: No such entity

Did the audio sink get installed properly?

Try pactl list.
