Sadly, no, this is the one feature that currently doesn't work on ARM -
mirroring the session that is directed at the physical input/outputs.
On Intel hardware, it would work.

Well, with Published Application Mode, it's not as much of a bypass as
it is a seamless integration (Did you watch one of our videos demoing
Published Application Mode?  If not, I suggest doing so - this one
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UawYNTgOBac> has German text, but you
don't have to understand German for it, you should be able to figure out
what's happening just by watching).  But yes, getting a home user set up
like that isn't as easy as it is in a corporate environment.
