Before you begin
The VMware Workstation sound device is enabled by default. Sound support includes PCM (pulse code modulation) output and input. For example, you can play.wav files, MP3 audio and Real Media audio. MIDI output from Windows guests is supported through the Windows software synthesizer. Hello, for demonstration purposes a user needs to produce sound from a Vsphere virtual machine and stream the sound through remote desktop connection and have therefore requested that I should provide a virtual sound card for that very purpose.
Driver updates for Windows 10, along with many devices, such as network adapters, monitors, printers, and video cards, are automatically downloaded and installed through Windows Update. You probably already have the most recent drivers, but if you'd like to manually update or reinstall a driver, here's how:
Update the device driver

Reinstall the device driver
The no sound problem occurs to users with NVIDIA High Definition Audio drivers installed and it often reflects itself when using HDMI to stream audio and video to other screens. Sometimes the problem appears when installing the latest drivers and sometimes the cause is more mysterious. The sound card removed from a virtual machine still appears connected in VMware Tools. If you uncheck/remove the sound card from a virtual machine using the drop-down list box, then open VMware Tools inside the guest operating system and check the state of the devices, the sound card still shows as being connected.
In the search box on the taskbar, enter device manager, then select Device Manager.
Right-click (or press and hold) the name of the device, and select Uninstall.
Restart your PC.
Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.
