Maybe this is offtopic and not the right question for this forum, but maybe some professional user here experienced the same problem.
Ik have a Windows 2008 server who is used for a Web stream with icecast, Edcast and Breakaway broadcast.Everything is working when i am locally logged on (administrator) at the server.
But when i do a RDP session (also admin) to the server the audio stops and breaks up. In a RDP session there is no audio driver available. In my RDP client i leave the sound at the remote (server) site.I Googled my ass off, and found many several problems but till now i did not found any solution that works.
I found Leifs solution with his dsp-livelink dll’s, but this is not exact what i want.Anybody here has any clue?
Thanks in advance
I have a similar configuration (Win2008 with Breakaway Live running on it, accessed by RDP) but my configuration uses an ASIO card, which therefore doesn’t shows up at all in Windows Soundcards. But you should try to set the default Windows soundcard to anything not related to Breakaway (some unused (virtual) soundcard for example) and see if this helps.
Is there actually a (consumer) ASIO soundcard with Windows 2008 drivers?
I think you talk about the Pro cards, whos cost a fortune?And how do you give the application ‘exclusive rights’ to use them.
I got this (taskbar):

and in the Control Panel:
[attachment=0:1vlms2c7]noaudio2.jpg[/attachment:1vlms2c7]The problem is you are requesting the audio from the remote computer when you’re connecting. You have to set in the RDP connection settings that you don’t want audio from the remote, and the problem won’t happen.

I think that’s what he already did.
And FYI, on the machine I’m talking about, the used soundcard is a Terratec Aureon 5.1 Sky (cost me about 25 € on eBay), using Terratec drivers. I purely disabled the internal Realtek soundcard. I have the same things as you, no usable soundcard on Windows. You can hear it there : http://www.radiomaxxi.com
Check if RDP is not overloading your computer. Try out with some VNC app if this could work better. I know by experience (and other people here did too) I got problems with RDP and setting up Breakaway (mouse jumps and turns settings all the way up or down).

[/quote]Jesse, i already checked this. See my original post.
It’s a known 2008 problem.I will try the virtual Soundcard approach. Any suggestions for a Virtual Sound Card to download with Windows 2008 support?
exactly, RealVNC is very light on the system, and free. (unless you want the features in the Enterprise version)
I’ve am using UltraVNC with no problems at all. I prefer UVNC because it comes with an FTP server, so you can also transfer files to/from the rermote. There are also VNC clients for some mobile phones, so you can remotely control using your phone.
It has been my experience that BBP doesn’t work well with Win2008 Server anyway, to make a long story short the piplelines kept leading us to a blue screen after a week or so .. We switched to Win2003 and never have never had a problem since… Connecting via the standard RDP and seclecting "sound to be played on the host only" works like a charm too…. Food for thoughts 🙂

Did you use the 32 or 64bit version of win2008?
I use the 32 bit version, and i experienced no problems, except the RDP problem.
Same problem more than 2 years now.
The worst, sometimes RDP creates problems to automation software amd skip tracks!
With any kind of settings,custom mstsc.exe files the problems are always there..some times appears after 1-2 hours
with craps etc.From my experience, when the pc/server used for audio application just forget rdp.
I agree with that ultraVNC is one of the best choices and in case that you need to have a monitor
from the remote machine, teamviewer is the best.And remember, never login to the server from an rdp session (even if this is at session0) after a restart.
Create an AutoLogon entry at the registry to start windows.
If you login at the server via RDP then probably you will see only rdp audio as choice at sounds…and the applications
that uses audio cards (special pipelines/VAC) will have only rdp audio!Cheers!

You’re right it was actually the 64bit version! 😳 We never tried the 32b version…
Except for the "obvious" answer to keep your sound on the host only (which you’ve tried already) it sounds like you might have to use RealVNC.
