Audio Support

Stereo audio output and mono audio input are supported and enabled by default.

During a session, the host's default audio device is changed to Teradici Virtual Audio Driver. When the session is disconnected, the audio device selection reverts to its previous setting.

Multi-Channel Audio Output

Requirements

• Agent: Graphics Agent for Windows, version 23.06 or newer

• Client: Anyware Client for macOS, version 23.06 or newer

  Important: macOS Client is required

  Multi-channel audio is only supported by the Anyware Client for macOS.

• Audio device: Multi-Channel Audio device that supports 2.0, 2.1, 5.1, or 7.1 channel configuration (connected to Anyware Client for macOS)

Current Limitations

• Only 2.0, 5.1, and 7.1 configurations are currently supported.

• Individual speaker volume control is currently only available for 2.0 configurations.

• Multi-channel audio does not work on Avid Media Composer.

Enabling Multi-Channel Audio

To use multi-channel audio in a PCoIP session, the client Mac must be connected to a multi-channel audio device that is set as the system default. When a configured client establishes a PCoIP connection, the Graphics Agent for Windows will automatically detect the multi-channel system.

See the Anyware Software Client for macOS Administrators' Guide for setup instructions.

Support for Multiple Audio Devices

Version 25.03 of the Graphics Agent for Windows introduces support for selecting multiple output devices (default 3) when the client is in session with the agent. Enabled audio devices will be promoted on the agent and the equivalent virtual devices with the same name will be created on the agent. Setting the values to zero will disable the feature and dynamic virtual devices will no longer created on the host. The input and output will fallback to using Teradici Audio Driver when the values are set to zero

• Linux clients connecting to Windows Graphics agents or Windows Standard agents except Windows Server.
