SUMMARY
 Sometimes I use my laptop to stream audio to the speakers connected to my desktop computer
over local network. The remote audio output is no loger available for selection in plasma-pa
applet. Now I need to open Audio KCM to do it. Please see the attached screenshot showing
plasma-pa applet without the remote output and remote audio output highlighted in red
in Audio KCM.

EXPECTED RESULT
we are able to select remote audio output via plasma-pa applet

https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-pa/-/merge_requests/115 hides virtual devices in the applet by default, which probably applies here

There's a settings option to get it back

I can confirm that 'Show virtual devices' option brings the remote output back. :)
Thanks Nicolas.
