Description

This attribute specifies whether the application enables the Secure Global Desktop audio redirection library.

Some X applications are hard-coded to use the /dev/audio or /dev/dsp devices for audio output. Enabling the audio redirection library causes the application to use the device specified by the SGDAUDIODEV environment variable instead.

Examples

--unixaudiopreload true

Enables the audio redirection library for the application.
