To enable audio, include "-r sound:local" on the command line:
$ rdesktop <hostname>[:port] -r sound:local

I had to also load the snd-pcm-oss module first, using this command in the terminal (as root):
# /sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss

According to the this, (http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2008-January/010015.html) snd-pcm-oss is available on joyride-1550.

This command is run in the standard Linux environment via the Terminal Activity. The GUI will probably not integrate comfortably with the XO Laptop's Sugar environment. Your user experience may vary considerably depending on the established environment and the other programs running on the laptop, may need re-installation after an OS Update. See the Linux software category for other commands.
