Audio sharing for conference/video calling

from Stardock Forums

Hello Everyone,

I recently purchased Multiplicity KVM mainly for the audio sharing and lock screen control.  I have used other software KVM's before like Synergy but it really on shared mouse and keyboard inputs.  What I want from this software is the ability to use the USB headset plugged into my desktop for conference calls with Teams/Skype on my work laptop that is plugged into my network over a gigabit ethernet connection.  I have been using Windows Remote Desktop for this but it has its own limitations.

Basically, all audio needs to be output on my desktop but my laptop needs to receive the audio input from the desktop microphone.  I haven't seen a way to configure this anywhere.  Is the software capable of this, can it differentiate between audio devices so it can send only microphone audio to the laptop?  It would also be nice to share the webcam from my desktop but I would settle for just getting to the audio problem addressed.

I actually got it working by changing the audio devices around on each PC but the sound quality was horrible.  I can do test calls in Teams to hear how everything sounds.  Teams kept telling me that the audio was muted so I assume that Multiplicity muted the audio on the laptop so I would only hear it from the desktop.  I still get much better audio quality using old school Windows Remote Desktop than I do using any modern software that I've tried so far, that includes the Remote Desktop app from the Microsoft store.
