Audio

You can speak and listen through the device audio or the USB headset. You can also use buttons on the USB headset (such as mute and skip). The user experience is enriched by providing smooth audio output.

Plug and play audio device support

We support multiple audio devices and redirect them to the virtual desktop session. Now, when you redirect audio devices, you can view the audio device name under the Sound settings > Playback and Sound settings > Recording on the virtual desktop session. The list of devices on the VDA is dynamically updated whenever an audio device is plugged in or removed.

Known Limitations

  • On the VDA, the name of the built-in audio device is in English only. The issue occurs when you use ChromeOS-based devices. [RFHTMCRM-8667]

Webcam

Citrix Workspace app for ChromeOS supports webcam redirection for both 32-bit and 64-bit applications, built-in, and external webcams within the virtual desktop and app sessions. The Workspace app detects newly connected external webcams and makes them available for use dynamically.

Recommendations for webcam redirection

  • For best performance, use high-end Chromebooks and low-latency networks with good bandwidth connections.
