Using DisplayPort audio
Use the DisplayPort (DP) interface to connect your thin clients to the display devices. The interface can include audio signals in
the same cable as the video signals. To enable the DisplayPort audio, ensure that you set up the following components:
● A thin client that supports DisplayPort audio and/or dual mode with audio.
● A display device, such as monitor, that supports audio playback in ICA, RDP, Blast, or the PCoIP sessions.
● An analog audio device or a monitor built-in speaker.
To enable the DisplayPort audio on ThinOS:
1. Set up a monitor with DP audio support.
2. Connect the ThinOS client to monitor using DP cable.
3. Plug the analog headset into the monitor DP audio interface.
4. On the ThinOS desktop, click System Setup > Peripherals > Audio > Playback devices, and select the Enable DP audio
check box.
5. Start either an RDP, ICA, PCoIP, or Blast session.
6. Play a video, and check the audio output using the analog headset.
