No. :(

I wonder if there is a better way than using https://github.com/amosbird/SimpleProtocolPlayer . Currently via the gnirehtet tunnel, the audio latency is around 1 second.

@amosbird Several years ago, I implemented a "real-time" talkie-walkie (rom1v/batphone@3059bc4) between Android devices on a Mesh network. A cache of 100ms was sufficient, so I guess you can get a latency far lower than 1 second on a "normal" network.

Yes, the problem isn't related to network, but the quality of the audio stream. I think I might need a pulseaudio client written with https://github.com/google/oboe
