You have to enable "Play audio on Host" at Remote Play settings. Wierdly it doesnt enable it.

To find the settings just click Steam on the top left > Settings > Remote Play > Advanced Host Options > Tick "Play audio on Host.

Also, make sure the steam overlay is enabled. It doesnt work when it disabled.
And it should work now, have fun. Tell me if it works or not. :)

Yes, thank you, I did all that, it didn't help.
But I found that the issue only seems to occur with certain games, like 'A Hat in Time' for instance. I'm still not sure what could be causing this, but I hope it will be resolved in a later update. After all, this feature is still in beta.

Thats because, the issue is...

You are running a Game from only 1 Computer...

Both Players see the same screen... But the Audio can only come out
of 1 or the other Computer...

Such as

1.) Host Computer
or
2.) Client Computer


Host is the PC running the Game...
Client is the Player on the other End...

There is no Option for Enable Sound on Both...

Somehow we need to Activate the Sound on the Host PC,
& then have the Client PC gain Access to the Audio from the Host...

Valve's Post about the Topic states that the Host can give Access to
Features that the Client can use, including Audio, but it also states that
we can restrict these Features, too... As in take them away, so my theory
is there is gotta be a setting somewhere we can give the Client PC Access
to the Audio on the Host PC... Just like we do with the Controllers,
Keyboard, & Mouse...

Good Luck...

Yeah, it was the "Host Sound" for me which fixed the issue.

The thing which caught me off guard is, I never use "Play Together". I only stream from my Windows computer to my Linux computer. When audio stopped working, it really didn't know why. On the host, Windows computer, I needed to enable audio on host for "Remote Play".

I solved my problem changing the Sound Output of te game to Steam stream audio on the windows App volume and device preferences option.

Try changing sound playback properties' default format from 24bit to 16bit. Good luck!

It is in your Windows sound property. Assuming you are using Windows 10, you would right click on your speaker icon > sound > change your playback device's property > advanced tab > Default Format

steam changed the capture method to work that way

with the streaming driver enabled as default, windows would only send sound to the client

now, just set the default speakers to what you use (disable or uninstall steam streaming speakers)
and just make sure to tick the play sound on host box
steam -> settings -> remote play

reinstala el juego sin el antivirus..

Wow.. That fixed it for us.. Strangely this is only necessary for some games. Others will run fine even on the windows default setting of 24 bits.
