The new app has 'enhanced' audio redirection support....and by enhanced I mean broken. It's meant to allow you to select multiple audio devices on the client system, but disabling it was the only way to have my Windows VDS session detect the audio again.
@coroner21 I have also experienced audio issues in the form of an intermittent missing Citrix HDX audio device in citrix published apps on 20.12. I have had to downgrade back to 20.09 for now, although restarting icaclient did tend to resolve the issue but it would go missing again after a while.
I have the problem that lately citrix receiver audio is no more routed through pulse. Instead it seems to be using alsa directly even though pulseaudio-alsa is installed and works for other apps (that try to output alsa audio). Anyone experience similar issues? Any fix / workaround available?
20.12 solved the SSL problems.
Same SSL-Problem here with the latest 20.10 package. The problem seems to have been introduced in the Apple version some years ago: https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX205443
Unfortunately there's no hint for a workaround.
@Swipe: same error here with 20.10-3. I get 3 different errors, switching between them from time to time:
The supplied SDK context is invalid for the function called (SSL error 31).
The remote SSL peer sent a Bad MAC alert (SSL error 45).
There is no memory available to the application (SSL error 9).
As a workaround I installed the icaclient19 package and that works. It seems they mostly appear when I try to interact with skype windows on the remote windows machine, that could be coincidence though.

In case anyone is troubleshooting HDX Webcam redirection I finally managed to get it working by following the above link, installing all of the gst plugins and enabling the HDXWebCam in the All_Regions.ini and the AllowAudioInput in wfclient.ini. Pretty sure the symbolic links referenced were not needed, but I'm too scared to intentionally break it and replicate the fix :).
Recently HDX Realtime Connector reports that audio is not optimized and when using Skype my voice sounds like a robot. Host machine is Windows. I have seen that some new flags related to HDX appeared in the config.ini and was wondering if it's only me or if anyone has the same issue.
Given the potentially critical nature of the package to getting work done and the frequency at which Citrix breaks the client, it might be worth sticking with a known version and updating less frequently: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/icaclient19/
Had to downgrade back to icaclient-20.09 due to multiple instances of the following error on 20.10:
"SSL error - The remote peer sent a Bad MAC alert (SSL error 45)"

If you cannot build because of a missing tar ball or a failed sha256 checksum validation, then the package is most likely outdated and they have removed the old version already. In this case, please click on “Flag package out-of-date”.

Found a fix for "authentication service could not be contacted"
Edit the config file under /home/username/.ICAClient\WFClient.ini and add a new line SSLCiphers=ALL save file and run "killall AuthManagerDaemon ServiceRecord selfservice storebrowse"
Relaunch Citrix and you should be fine
