Yes, I use Jabra! Sounds like the Headset gets redirected through USB. Can you disable USB Redirection just for testing?


How do you disable usb redirection ? Does this affect getting delay ?

Getting delay response with XenDesktop

Go to your Citrix Profile, Sessions, Citrix, Citrix Global, Native USB Redirection/Fabulatech USB Redirection (please uncheck both).


Both are unticked already

10.05.800 and 11.01.110 , Jabra Link 360. its like perfect on the Thin client doing test sound. when you are in Xendesktop session it takes about a second or a second and a half to make a sound if you do something like sound related. i found the setting in pulseaudio to turn off idle mode this helps but drains the headset big time. its like the delay between playing sound to kick the headset back into action then play
