Description Lapo Luchini 2009-06-12 12:00:06 UTC 
Remote sounds over RDP doesn't seem to work.

Fix: I found this patch at this address, with the name "Rdp Sound in Vista [PATCH]" (which might well be related to my case as well, since Win7 is after Vista; or maybe it also happens with remote WinXPs, I didn't check that).
Using this patch the sound can be heard, and the play button is disabled for the sound duration.

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=200902131243.10881.sameer.subscriptions%40damagehead.com&forum_name=rdesktop-devel
How-To-Repeat: 
When connecting to a Windows7 virtual machine, I try to receive sound with the following line:
rdesktop -r sound:local:libao
and indeed the Windows speaker tray-icon says "remote audio".
But when I try to play a sound (e.g. in control panes, sounds) the play button doesn't stay disabled for the sound duration (probably the play-sound syscall fails).
