pavucontrol works fine without pulseaudio, if you control another machine's pulseaudio instance over the network:

Not sure about xfce4 packages, don't use them.
Hi,
You can use the pulseaudio client library to send audio to a pulseaudio server in your network. That works only for software using libpulse, though. It probably won't work for connections through pulseaudio-alsa. pulseaudio-alsa works fine with a remote pulse server if you properly configure the client library. My desktop has streamed all audio to a different device for years without problem. And that included audio from alsa-only applications. -- Maarten
