What's rdp-virtual soundcard?

The audio driver that sends the audio to the client computer for
rendering
there. Since there is no hardware involvement on the server computer it
is
by definition virtual.


Who's sending what to whom? Does the host (server) see the virtual sound
card on the client computer


No, it just sees another sound card driver that happens to output via the
rdp-protocol instead of via a hardware sound card.

when the client has the virtual soundcard driver loaded?


No no no, the client has the "other half" of the rdp-package loaded and it
outputs audio to the client hardware driver and sound card just like any
other audio-using application.

Kind regards
