Configure macOS X to use U.S. layout instead of British (you can swap layouts with keystroke, e.g. ctrl+space). You can do this with the "System Preferences > Keyboard" option. The US layout swaps the '#' and '£' character with 'shift+3' instead of 'option+3' but leaves the rest untouched. 

In VMWare Horizon Client: "Menu > Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Key Mappings". Then deselect "Enable Language Specific Key Mappings"

In the Linux VDI, using the search, start the "Settings" application. Once it starts select "Region & Languages > Input Sources" and add "English (Macintosh)" as the Input Source. If you have more than one input source you can swap them in the global menu bar, at the top right of the screen. 



Thanks to Willem Deconinckfor providing information for the procedure.
