Hi,
On the Server
1. Please make sure that SP1 is installed
2. Please set the following GP setting if you have not already:
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Device and Resource Redirection
Limit audio playback quality     Enabled
Audio Quality:     High
You can do this in the server's local policy if you want using gpedit.msc, or via a domain-based GPO using gpmc.msc.  Please verify that the policy is being applied using the following commands on the server (run in an administrator command prompt):
gpresult /z>gpresult.txt
notepad gpresult.txt
On the Client PC
1. In the .rdp file that you use to connect to the server, make sure you have the following line:
audioqualitymode:i:2
2. Please verify that the connection between the client and server is stable and low-latency, using ping, netmon, etc.  There should be no lost packets and preferrably low response time numbers.
Thanks.
-TP
