+<tt>POLYP_COOKIE</tt>. This is very useful when using SSH or any other
+remote login tool for logging into other machines and getting audio
+playback to your local speakers. The Polypaudio client libraries make
+use of this data automatically. Instead of using this module you may
+use the tool <tt>pax11publish</tt> which may be used to access, modify
