[FreeNX-kNX] nxclient and freenx server sound problem

[Freerk Kalsbeek]

On Ubuntu (Hardy) you need to install package esound-clients and (if you
want MP3 support) gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
Then, login through NX and configure sound to use ESD Sound Daemon for
playback.

Should work!

Good luck,
Freerk
