Sound and Remote Access (Suggestions for network sound servers)

I recently installed Arch to my flash drive, but given the limited space on the drive, I'd like to run most major applications from the network since, most of the time, I will be on the same network as my full Arch desktop.

From what I understand, to get sound to work with remote access, I'd have to install a sound server on the server and the client, and probably forward ports from the server back to the client thorough ssh.

Does anyone have any recommendations for which sound server to use (esd, pulse, jack) for this? Ideally, I'd like to be able to ssh with X forwarding into my desktop, and run X applications, and have sound play through the client. I don't really have any other reasons to install a sound server, so size and ease of setup are my primary concerns right now.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Regards,
Sean
