I figured out the strange issue with there being no sound from the playroom xbmc install on the TV down there, with a bit of online research1. The network is all working fine now too. Sound out of that TV is terrible but it's a start. Next to mirror the config from my other xbmc so I don't have to set up all the sources and so on... I will version control those files.
xbmc: X-box Media Centre, some software that would run on an old xbox or other computer hardware to play movies and music etc. I used to talk about this a lot...
