 - [X] Have another session with the sound isolated
 - [ ] Share the window instead of the desktop
 - [ ] Split the audio so that we can join the Q&A room before the MPV ends? Would need to figure out how to share the MPV window, but OBS doesn't like to share full-screen MPV

 Process on res:
 
-1. sudo su - orga
-2. ~/bin/gen/-vnc  (or ~/bin/dev/-vnc) - if the VNC server is already up, it'll tell you that it's reusing it. Gen will be on port 5905, dev will be on port 5906. (See vnc_id in the ansible vars if you want to change this.)
-3. Forward your local ports via SSH:
-   ssh -L 15905:127.0.0.1:5905 -L 15906:127.0.0.1:5906 res.emacsconf.org
-4. Connect using xvncviewer to the appropriate forwarded port from your laptop. Password is in conf.org under vnc_password.
-   Gen: xvncviewer 127.0.0.1:15905 -shared
-   Dev: xvncviewer 127.0.0.1:15906 -shared
-6. Load something with audio in firefox -ProfileManager , and start playing it.
-7. Use pavucontrol to make sure the Firefox process is going into the $track-qa sink.

-If you copy res:~orga/.vnc/passwd to your computer (ex: vnc-passwd), you can use the -passwd arg:
