Description Christian Nitschkowski 2007-10-24 00:29:14 UTC
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

I'm using KRDC, compiled from todays SVN, to connect to a Win2K-host.
My onboard soundcard has an digital (Intel (AD198x Digital)) and an analog (Intel (AD198x Analog)) output.
I configured Phonon to use the digital output as the primary device for each kind of audio output (Notifications, Music, etc).
When I now play some music on the remote Win2K-host, the sound is played on my analog output.
As I don't know whether KRDC actually uses Phonon, I don't know if this is a bug report or something new for the wishlist.
Anyway, from a user's perspective it would be a bug - why should KRDC play the sound with the analog device while having a digital one selected?
Comment 1 Urs Wolfer 2007-10-24 18:12:37 UTC
Thanks for this report. Unfortunately, the KRDC RDP implementation is rdesktop based. rdesktop handles the sound output, and as far as I know, we are not able to change this.

Probably you could ask the rdesktop developers for a solution: http://www.rdesktop.org/

Please comment here if you have any news.

I've contacted the rdesktop developers.
