TeamViewer 9 – TeamViewer Mutes System Sounds

remote accessremote desktop

I am interested in using TeamViewer as my replacement for LogMeIn, which recently announced the termination of their free remote control service. Since I am using TeamViewer, I decided that I want to set up audio streaming as well so that I can hear what's going on at the base computer. The strange this is that although I have configured TeamViewer to stream sounds, TeamViewer mutes the System Sounds every time I remotely connect to my computer. I have found that I can stream sounds when I unmute the System Sounds, but is there any way to stop TeamViewer from muting the System Sound on its own?

I've also encountered this. I was not able to solve it, but I did notice that if I log in without requesting sound (Extra -> Options -> Remote Control -> Uncheck "Play computer sounds and music"), it does not mute the remote computer.

This was enough for me since I don't need the remote sounds, I only cared about not muting the remote computer.
