Thanks for the log, there is "Loaded fake backend for rdpsnd" but there should be "Loaded pulse backend for rdpsnd". What xfreerdp arguments was used? There might be some problem in the code, which translates the old syntax arguments to the new syntax. However, it works properly to me with "--plugin rdpsnd --data pulse --" and "/sound" as well. Please note that old syntax can't be mixed with the new syntax.
