Is there a way I can check my files to make sure?  I just sniffed the
network while playing from a remote frontend, and I could defenitely see
the traffic hit the backend server, and then go to the frontend.

Perhaps it doesn't realize that it can play the file directly?  The NFS
partition is mounted in the same location on both servers (/media), so
the paths should be the same?

Thanks for any advice!
