It basically hadn't worked at all between now & the introduction of newpcm. I'm using NT4 as my guest os. I have sound setup in NT4 the way vmware suggests (sb 1.x pro 16 driver, i/o 220, irq 5, dma chans 1 & 7, mpu-401 disabled). When I play sounds in windows, essentially nothing happens. There is no sound played, and the interrupt count for the pcm device as reported by vmstat -i does not increase. There are no complaints within windows, and sounds seem to take about the right amount of time to "play". There is nothing in the vmware log file having to do with sound, even with debugging turned on. Does anybody know which vmware thread is the one that's supposed to be handling sound I/O?
