I have just tested sound between Linux (PyHoca-GUI) and Linux (Ubuntu 12.04).
What I do is:
o launch pulseaudio -D on the client-side
o launch PyHoca-GUI with Pulseaudio enabled on the client-side
o start an X2Go session (e.g. a Terminal Session)
o run the command paplay /usr/share/sound/pop.wav
I do not have a native Windows client here-around, so I cannot say
anything about Windows.
Can you check if sound works for clients with Linux? Testing from
Windows and Linux can narrow down: is it a server or client issue.
Also: please test with X2Go Client. Do you have sound, then?
Also: you do not have to enable a virtual sound card in KVM to have
sound with X2Go. I use KVM, as well, and always unconfigure the audio
devices (which get into the VM setup by default when configured with
virt-manager).
Greets,
Mike
