I am having a problem with this also but looking at the rdesktop man page and multiple examples I am still puzzled about the -r option.
many examples show its use as
rdesktop -rsound
no space btwn -r and sound
man page shows a space?
I am running SeamlessRDP on a Windows 2003 server and doing rdesktop -rsound -A -s "c:\seamlessrdp\seamlessrdpshell.exe iexplore.bat" <host id>
the iexplore.bat use is something I picked up where if you create a .bat file on windows for each app you want to execute you can run the actual program from the batch file... followed by the windows Logoff command. That keeps the Windows RDP from locking you out because you've used up your sessions.
Everything works but still no sound. I did try substituting Cendio's sound driver (from their downloadable server CD) on the Windows side but that's still not made a difference.
I am still not sure where the problem lies (with windows seamlessrdp side or with Linux rdesktop side). Sound does work on the Linux side tho' when browsing to the same web site (I just test by running browser to cnn.com and picking one of their short news video's).
