I recently migrated my home computer and notebook to Windows Server 2008 64bit from Windows XP. My home computer has an Asus PK5-E motherboard with onboard sound (HD audio) and its SPDIF port is connected to my home receiver. All audio/sounds plays fine and I have no problems when I'm logged on directly to this computer. However, if I attempt to RDP into this computer, from my notebook, all audio is disabled and my Audio/Speaker icon in the system tray has a red X and a tooltip of "No Audio Output Device is installed". As well, if I log in directly and start an audio application like Foobar and then go to my notebook and RDP into the computer, the audio stream is stopped. I have tried the following without success: 1) When connecting with the RDP client I set the 'Remote computer sound' setting on the 'Local Resources' tab to 'Leave at remote computer' 2) Opened the 'Terminal Services Configuration' applet (Start->Administrative Tools->Terminal Services), double-clicked the RDP-tcp Connection and unchecked Audio from the Client Settings tab 3) Opened the 'Group Policy Editor' applet (Start->Run->gpedit.msc) and navigated to Computer Configuration->Administrative Templates->Windows Components->Terminal Services->Terminal Server->Device and Resource Redirection and set the 'Allow Audio Redirection' policy to Enabled. 4) After trying the native Server 2008 HD audio drivers, I tried the Soundmax audio drivers from the ASUS site I understand that other remote clients like VNC may work but I'd really like to solve this issue when using RDP. I'm not sure what else I can do and any additional help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
