How to stream sound from a remote win2008 server via RDP to Remmina under Ubuntu?

Initial problem:
There is a remote Windows 2008 R2 server running qemu. Clients connect to it via RDP.
There is sound in Windows clients, but not in remmina under Ubuntu 14.04 (they played with the settings, Advanced->Sound is set to Local).
The device "Multimedia Audio Controller" does not have a driver.
Current situation:
It turned out that there is sound in the rdesktop client, but it is jerky. They write that the reason is in Pulse.
It turned out that in the xfreerdp client with the "--plugin rdpsnd" parameter, the sound works great.
For "Multimedia Audio Controller" a driver from AC97 was found by device id, it is installed, but it does not start: "This device cannot start." It doesn't affect anything along the way.
I would still like to use remmina, as it is more convenient. In addition, freerdp has the same developer, and in theory there should be no difference. Maybe you can enable this rdpsnd plugin in it?
PS. I tried to run a couple more proprietary RDP clients, but nothing worked: everyone has problems with libraries, and there is no solution for 14.04.

For future generations: on the "Advanced" tab in the "Sound" field, set "Local - Medium quality". Doesn't work on high.
