Yes, you will need a soundcard in the computer which is connecting to the RDP server.

Does this solution require a physical soundcard on the host?

Nobody seemed to answer the question about the solution not working after reboot. Is the fix permanenet or not?

Great tutorial and solution. However with Vista client whilst the solution was effective on restarting the client, next time VM was utilised on client it was not effective. Running ESX Server 3i. Checking settings reveals the audio is still enabled in the “Device and Resource Redirection”.

Has anyone else experienced this? Doesn’t make sense to me when it initialy worked.

Thanks for this. Once changing the group policy this worked a treat for the two client machines I am utilising. However next time I went to use it is no longer working although checking the Local Group Policy shows the setting as still having audio and video playback still enabled.

Has anyone got any clues?
