A driver can request in its .inf that it be made the default audio device at 
install time:
 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb981547.aspx
 
AddReg = XYZ-Audio-Device.AddReg
  ...
  [XYZ-Audio-Device.AddReg]
  HKR,,SetupPreferredAudioDevices,3,01,00,00,00
 
For the RDP scenario it may be reasonable (or not) to disable all of the other 
audio drivers via SetupAPI calls.

I have created an audio device driver, during the RPD session, login time i 
have to set that driver as default audio driver for streaming the audio data to 
my RDP client.

May I ask again, why do you need to? We’d like to understand the scenarios in 
case there are other improvements we should make in this area the future.

Thanks guys,
          I figured it out how to do this. writing to the registry from vc++ 
will do the work.

My usual follow up question: why do you want to?
