Re: [Xen-users] Sound Driver

I have been trying to get rdp sound to work via rdesktop on xen hvm windows 
installation with no success.
It shows an rdp mixer but it always reports there is a problem with your sound 
device.
If I connect to a non-virtualized windows it works fine.

If there anything that needs to be set to get rdp sound working?
