[App_rpt-users] no receive audio in iaxRpt

Hello,
I am slowly but surely bringing up a remote Kenwood TS2000 using Limey 
linux with a URI
I have successfully gone through the steps in the wiki to get the rx 
audio adjusted.
iax-Rpt seems to be configured correctly and has no trouble connecting 
to my node.
transmit control seems to be working as expected i.e. it properly keys 
up the rig.
have not yet checked tx audio or deviation.
I am using the COR output from the kenwood. it is open collector and 
active low.
(measured 0.6 volts when receiver squelch is open 5.01 volts closed)
everything looks like it should be working, But, for the life of me I 
have not been able to get any receive audio on the iaxRpt windows client.
Win machine is XP sp3 on the same subnet as the limey box. there is an 
exception for iaxRpt in the windows firewall setup. tried with the 
firewall turned off there is still no audio.
my usbradio.conf looks like this:

can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
