I believe the latest version of rdesktop supports sound over RDP but I've no idea how difficult it is to configure/how useable it is. Best thing would be to repost a query specifically on rdesktop and sound. If you don't get any solutions here, try the K12OSN mailing list. Some of the folks on that list will have dealt with the issue. Also, have you browsed through the rdesktop-user archives? You can get to them from www.rdesktop.org Good luck!
