How to restore sound after using Windows Remote Connection?

1

I have used the remote connection from windows to connect a windows to another (both win 7) and after I logged off, there is no sound at all on the remote pc.

Before connecting the first time, I didn't configure the sound options so it brought the sound to the connecting pc. After that, i have changed the sound to stay on the remote pc and logged in/off but the remote pc remained with no sound.

I did try to disconnect the session with tscon (tscon.exe 1 /dest:console) but it remained the same...

The sound options on the pc are all as they should and the drivers seem ok.

Any ideas?

The sound usually returns to the PC. Have you tried reopening the application that play the sounds? – EliadTech – 2014-11-30T20:22:16.300

Yes, i have spotify and it is not doing sound... Not even the system plays sounds... – Ricardo Amendoeira – 2014-11-30T20:23:41.843

In the Sound control panel, do you see any devices? – EliadTech – 2014-11-30T20:28:01.243

Yes, and default device is correct and appears to be working because the "test" works (visually) but it has no sound. – Ricardo Amendoeira – 2014-11-30T20:31:56.713

And through the command "qwinsta" i only see 2 connections: Name:Services Username:NO d:0 State:Disk Name:Console Username:YES Id:1 State:Active If i disconnect the session id 1, it ends the current (local) session. I have disabled remote access to the pc, hoping that would help... Please, any ideas? – Ricardo Amendoeira – 2014-11-30T21:10:30.537

I ended up doing a system restore and that solved it. Thanks for the help!
