I think, your applications will have to be able to output sound to a networked sound-server. Otherwise, it won't work on LTSP. I've been able to get sound (XMMS, an mp3 player, to be exact) to work in our internet cafe. The details have been written here: http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/Sound#Potential_problems HTH.
