A quick follow-up to this. I've done more troubleshooting today, and have tracked the on-again-off-again audio all the way back to /libfreerdp/core/transport.c and it looks like the audio traffic (which comes in as the only non-fastpath data so it's easy to spot) is dropping before it even makes it onto the stream. So something that FreeRDP is doing is either screwing with the input stream where I can't quite see it or with the server itself. Which makes very little sense. Audio works perfectly with all of my targets using the old (1.0) rdpsnd and the official MS RDP clients so it's not a bug/problem on that end. I put together a quick stub rdpsnd subsystem that doesn't actually do anything and see the same behavior so I'm 100% sure that my subsystem isn't blocking anything. Does anyone have any idea how we might be affecting the server like this? Marc-Andre?
