I have some interest in this too. How is this accessed and configured? I
am using Fedora 12 with GNOME. Is there a GUI or does this require
editing a config file?

Right now I am getting two machines using one set of speakers via audio
Y-cables, but it definitely has a negative effect on the sound quality.

What I really need is a way for old apps that are not PulseAudio-aware
to work along with using PulseAudio. I presume that isn't possible? I
have had to remove PulseAudio from most of my desktops for this reason.
