yes. no changes in the sound option affect anything… its weird. even if i have “do not play sound” on it still plays at the remote computer. any ideas?

edit: i guess winamp is the issue… when i play music in windows media player it gets sent to the laptop. i dont get how it would be application dependant

Why not file share…

The sound quality that comes through is pretty crappy

RDP was not really designed to stream music…
