Enable system sound

By default the system sound output is set to a PulseAudio Virtual Sink. To switch output to external speakers use Menu>Settings>Sound

Pipe audio to PDW, DSDPlus, etc.

If the application generating the audio has an audio output setting (e.g. gqrx) set this to Virtual_Sink. If there's no output setting, switch the system output to Virtual_Sink from Menu>Settings>Sound. Start the receiving application and then open "PulseAudio Volume Control" from the programs menu or "pavucontrol" from the command line. Click the recording tab and set the desired application to monitor the Virtual_Sink from the drop down menu.
