With the last Thinlinc update (27.11.15), the audio system has been modified. Running Thinlinc sessions with an active sound, are no longer confused, if the session disconnects and reconnects. This is a great improvement against the previous situation (in the past the sound applications often has to be closed and opended again after a session reconnects).

Disadvantage: the new way of audio transport made it impossible to choose between different audio devices. This affects all thinlinc terminals at the institute with an additional USB audio adapter. Now, the thinlinc termimals have been modified to prioritize USB audio adapters against built-in audio cards. This new setting also eleminate the need to switch the audio device after every session reconnect.

If a plugged in USB audio adpater is not needed, best is to unplug it.
