Hello all,

Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated.  I have an old desktop functioning as a Win10 HTPC with a TV and some USB-connected Audioengine speakers with their own DAC.  I have a keyboard and mouse to use with the HTPC, but I'd like to just use Windows RDP to access it most of the time. However, I noticed that when I log in with RDP, the Audioengine speakers disappear for the duration of the RDP session.  When I log out, Windows "sees" the USB DAC again and everything is fine (well, except JRiver needs to be restarted because the preferred Audio Device disappeared for a bit and then reappeared. 


What about using a RDP session might "turn off" or otherwise obstruct a connected USB DAC?

Thanks
