ahewitt BigHand themselves said that they have reported to Microsoft an issue with the BigHand audio channel not reconnecting.

They stated that

It is 100% possible this has already been fixed in the recent Remote Desktop Client updates so you may not see it anymore.

They gave a workaround to basically kill all the msrdc.exe processes on the local machine, then restart the BigHand client if it is still running to start a new virtual channel for your local recording and playback.

I am not actually sure if this error occurs for many people. I would imagine one of your users would have seen this by now. . .

Jamesatighe Im having another issue here with Fusion by freedom scientific. Your workaround of killing msrdc.exe fixes it. This tool magnifies and then connects to a remote instance of the application through the same channels for audio also.

Connect first time, works

Reconnect- doesnt work

Kill msrdc.exe works

I tried regressing the versions also

RemoteDesktop_1.2.1026.0_x64 Same problem

RemoteDesktop_1.2.1104.0_x64 This already didn’t work

RemoteDesktop_1.2.1185.0_x64 tried this build also. Same problem. This is the newest build.
