If my memory is not totally failing on me, I did this almost a year ago with
the rdp client shipped with VirtualBox (if I remember correctly).  The problem
was more that the licensing model of JAWS sort of forbids remote use by
default, which makes getting audio from JAWS via RDP tricky.  NVDA
worked
nicely though.  Of course, there were certain issues with
audio latency, but the system was indeed useable.
