I plan on testing as well today, if time permits. But I expect it to not work either.

@Danny I DM'd Ray, as I didn't want to derail Shawn's thread any further. I should have just done this and created another thread.
r
Yea good call.
j
FWIW, I'm on CWA 22.10.5.14. I saw they released 2212 TP today
Oh the life of a gamer and Citrix "consumer" @Shawn Maiberger
s
Whoops, saw this after putting a response in my own thread. Yeah, hoping for a fix for that at some point.
Well, doubly when you work for a game studio. 🙂
j
The other scenario I see is WFH, Onboard audio, USB Headset, Webcam with mic, and multiple displays with speakers (each with an HDMI audio device)
s
Lots of work being done at Citrix on the 3D Pro side to get it up to spec with Parsec (shout out to Rody and his team on the stuff they're working on), but sometimes Citrix at a AAA studio feels like a square peg / round hole situation. 🙂

Oh, that makes it even more fun for us. We're a big studio that's gone entirely hybrid. Our offices are closed right now while they're being expanded / renovated, so almost everyone is WFH
Gaming + WFH spread around the country + Citrix = lots of sleepless nights trying to figure out how to shave down that square peg LOL

@Jon Bucud I could not find the other thread, but can you reiterate what you are seeing?
j
Client device has >8 Audio devices, connecting to RemotePC, Audio Devices fail to redirect. Looks like this in the RemotePC
s
Have seen that one myself with our Enterprise Architect, can confirm. If more than (in our tests, iirc - been a few months) 4 audio output devices, the audio output engine will stop passing through output, but the devices will still show up. Session has to be logged off and back on to get audio output again after a device over the limit of audio devices connects in once, even if you disconnect and connect from another device with less. Been a few months, so the details might be fuzzy, but it was something to that effect.

Let me check on this tomorrow

We ended up just telling the EA to disable some of the devices on his endpoint in Sound control panel to get down to <= 4 and that cleared it up for him, and added it to our KB for now, as it's easily enough worked around that the other stuff Citrix is working on with us is more valuable to spend time on. :-)
j
With the GoXLR it's easy... power switch on GoXLR and poof -5 devices. When I originally posted and I had the Schiit stack (DAC/AMP and virtual audio cables abound)... it was less fun.
s
Ah yeah, he uses his GoXLR for a critical piece of his audio routing for his conferencing setup so we couldn't just power it off. But we were able to go into Sound Control Panel on his endpoint and just disable the output devices on it that he didn't actively use, and that cleared it up for his particular case.

I got around to testing this today, But from the DaaS seutp. Same thing, I had to unplug most of the USB devices, disconnect the session, then go back in for it to allow me to use the Sound/Speaks as an example. running 2203CU2 VDA on Windows 10 21H2, MCS, VMware 7.0 update 3. Just provisioned from Citrix Cloud.

FWIW, Optimized Teams does in fact see, and can use, all devices when HDX Optimized...even if the rest of the desktop cant.
r
Oh, that's interesting.
g
Sorry for reviving an older thread, but did this ever get resolved?
r
Not that I am aware of.
g
Guessed as much, yeah. Also, there might be an issue with Bluetooth devices or Bose QC 35 specifically. Audio doesn't work after login I have my Bose headset connected via Bluetooth when I log in.
It comes up something like this...
Disclaimer.; I am testing this while still using an older CVAD-version on the delivery controllers, so it might be that some configuration isn't present or something. (1912 CU3).
j
Still not resolved for me with 2203CU2
I think this may be "partially" working in 2212. Just installed on my RemotePC and now I get one device from my local machine. Unfortunately it's not a device I use... so I'm looking for a 3.5mm to 3.5mm male/male cable or wired headphones to test.
oddly enough, HDX Monitor now shows all devices coming through though.
Annnnnd it works in our non-persistent 20H2 / VDA 2212 pooled random machines! Must be something sideways with my RemotePC
