CentOS - Mar 2010 - FreeNX : forward audio from server to client ?

Hi,

I setup a FreeNX server with a GNOME desktop, and I can access it from a 
client with the NoMachine client. Everything is running fine, and now I 
only have two problems left : audio and printing forwarding. I'll follow 
the "only-slay-one-dragon-at-a-time" rule and take care of audio
first.

Did anyone manage to forward sound with FreeNX ? Here, server and client 
are using CentOS. And yes, I did check the little "enable multimedia" 
checkbox on the client, but to no avail. Whenever I play a sound in the 
client session, it comes out on the server speakers.

Any suggestions ?

Niki

I've had bad luck myself with sound - but using NoMachine...  And, for me 
it only seems to work where sound is played for a Windows client machine 
to a NoMachine CentOS server.  The only sound I can get is using XMMS... 
If I start a web browser (like Firefox), I do not hear anything if I go to 
Youtube or the like...

I'd love to know how to get sound working as well :)
