Citrix Workspace For Chromebook

Hi All,

Apps and Desktops 1912 LTSR
VDA 1912 LTSR
Workspace app for Chrome OS 20.4.0.49
Lenovo Chromebook

I'm having real problems getting any form of Audio/Mic/Webcam redirection going when connected to a Win 10 VDI workstation and/or 2016 Published desktop from Chromebooks only. MS Teams, Skype for Business nothing seems to see any form of Webcam or audio device. We have a Hybrid client environment with Windows and Mac clinets and don't see this issue. Is there something i'm missing in regards to this functionality from Chrome OS clients anyone can think of ? I've played around a fair bit and can't get a bite, not sure where to start.

Thanks,

This option is not as powerful and lacks some features of the Citrix Workspace. If you have to use the web-based interface, we strongly recommend using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox when using the Central Piedmont Cloud as they offer full HTML5.
