[SOLVED] Sound from Ubuntu?
- Thread starter zappa

I think the question was how you access that ubuntu. VNC got no audio, but SPICE and RDP does.
How do you get audio through RDP? Is there a setting that needs to be set in order for audio to work?
You need to manually build and install the pulseaudio sound redirector:

Is this normal, no audio in a VM? I figured it would be emulated like video. All the videos and tutorials I've watched regarding setting up a VM in ProxMox doesn't mention having to configure audio.
SPICE will give you audio, but you asked about RDP. RDP is not native to Linux.
ETA: I don't know what videos you watched, but most virtualization workloads aren't virtual desktops. If you're running a web server or mail server or whatever you don't need sound.

Sorry, when you say SPICE, is that using virt-viewer? None of the guides/videos mention SPICE.
Yes. SPICE is one of the choices when you set up the video in a VM. There are other ways to do virtual desktops on Linux VM as well. I use NoMachine.
