Hi Brett,
There must be some misunderstanding on what OTC is supposed to accomplish.
It's basically only a boot server, not a thin client server. It boots your old
diskless pcs over the network with a Linux (some ancient Ubuntu 6.04 I think)
version. Then you connect to some separate client server.
You don't need the whole OTC if you got all your clients already running HP
Thinconnect.

Subject: [openthinclient-user] No sound on OTC
I am trying to get the sound to work on OTC. I see quite a few posts, very few
resolutions. I previously used 2x TCS, but they have dropped support for that
product and I have no need for application publishing or the more substantial
cost. .
I have installed OTC Server on a Windows Server 2012 HP Proliant G4 and all
seems good, except audio. Sound plays fine from a Win 7 machine RDP to the
server, just not on an OTCclient. The client machines are a mix of old pc's
with a number of Dell GX260's and HP t5520 Thin Clients running HP Thinconnect.
None of them play audio from the remote server.
We do need audio for training videos and they all require digital certificates
for each user account on the server. So, I could install one computer just for
watching training videos and have Win OS on it just to remote to the Server and
play training, but I would rather users be able to have audio.
I've read mixed reports on support for sound with OTC. I have enabled sound in
the rdesktop application settings and on the Win server. When playing audio the
mixer on the server shows audio modulation.
So, is it possible to play audio with our setup? If so, where should I look for
the problem? Should I purchase TC hardware instead of old pc's? What we have
played audio with 2X TCS, but as mentioned, we don't have that option now.
Thanks for the help.
