Multicast flooding with Pulseaudio

Pulseaudio multicasting options are a very evil thing to enable inside a network. If I can remember the numbers correctly it was sending out around 250 MB of UDP packets every hour when you enable it. This makes the whole network unusable.

Please don’t try this at office.
