Disable (Remove) the RDP Audio driver?

[Guest rmeechan@kpttest.com]

Hi All,

 

I am running into issues with our terminal server - we need to use an

application that keeps crashing due to the virtual sound driver and

currently there is no solution. Is there anyway to remove the RDP

audio driver from TS so that each user session has no sound card

installed? Changing the settings No audio, Redirect audio to remote/

local etc always has the RDP audio driver enabled for the user

session.

 

 

I'm just looking for some dirty way to remove it such as the audio

redirector DLL's or something? I really need to get this application

working in TS and currently the developers of the app have no solution

nor a future fix as far as I know...

 

 

Thanks.

I don't know of a solution outside of removing them from device manager

and I'm not even sure that would work. what I have found to work with

developers is the threat of withholding payment until such time as they

fix the problem. remember, you are the customer, you hold the money,

they are doing work for you, not the other way around.

Goto "HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/Drivers32/Terminal

Server/RDP". There are two REG_SZ's with the name "mixer" and "wave" and

their values point to "rdpsnd.dll". If you prefix the names by an '_' for

example: "_mixer" and "_wave", there is no RDP audio driver available in the

TS sessions. Hope this helps...
