Description Neal Gompa 2024-08-05 10:29:08 UTC 
SUMMARY
I've been trying out KRDP and while it works quite well, one big missing feature compared to GNOME Remote Desktop is audio redirection. If I'm watching a video or playing a game, I would expect audio to work here, both output (playback) and input (recording).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up KRDP
2. Connect to it using Remmina or Microsoft Terminal Services Client

OBSERVED RESULT
Screen and clipboard works, but there is no audio.

EXPECTED RESULT
Screen, clipboard, and audio works. Local microphone is connected to the remote session.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora Linux 40 (KDE Plasma)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.4.0
Qt Version: 6.7.2
