That's odd - 2 copies of /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11 running at the
same time?

I just installed the raspbian version of gnuradio - version 3.7.4 -  on
my raspberry pi3.

There were no runtime errors with the audio while logged into the console.

In fact, the audio works if I just leave the audio device blank.

If you think it might be related to stereo, you an use

  /usr/bin/pavucontrol

and change the audio device to mono.

I can run a python script from a SSH connection on an Intel machine and
the audio works

However, if I connect from an ARM machine, the audio doesn't work - I
get runtime errors.

Using VNC from Windows, your mileage may vary - but it doesn't appear to
be gnuradio issue.

The only suggestion I have is to turn off Qt/WX in the flow graph and
try running only the python code.

Otherwise, post your flow chart to mailing list and I'll try in on my pi3.
