I founded that xfreerdp sets settings->audio_playback to true when using rdpsnd plugin, but remmina does not set this option. I make a patch for this, and add 'alsa' as the default audio driver. Just put this file into debian/patches/fix-rdpsnd-no-sound, and build the package like 'debuild' or others.
