At this time, support for two audio output devices is in TECH PREVIEW. Therefore, this feature must be first enabled using the enable_multi_audio_devices parameter.

2. Add the following line:

   enable_multi_audio_devices = 1

Selecting Audio Devices

Before you begin, make sure that at least one audio device is connected to Anyware Client. If no device is connected, you will not see any device under the device list on the Audio dialog.

To select audio devices:

1. When in session, go to the Connection drop-down menu, and click Audio.

2. On the Anyware | Audio window, select the output devices:

   1. Under Output, use the toggle buttons next to the output devices to select the devices of your interest.

      One Output Device is Required

      Anyware Client selects a default output device, for which the toggle button appears locked until you select another device.

   2. Select another audio output device by using the toggle button next to the audio device. Only 2 output devices can be selected at a time.

3. Select the input device:

   • Under Input, use the toggle buttons next to the available input devices to select the input device of your interest. Only 1 input device can be selected at a time.

4. Wait until the devices have been selected.

Once selected, the audio devices are forwarded to the agent.
