Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked vbox@FreeBSD.org for maintainer-feedback: Bug 237472: emulators/virtualbox-ose: no sound https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D237472 --- Description --- I have not had working sound in VirtualBox for a long time. Scenario: - Host OS: FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE-p3 #6 r343805M - Host HW: Core i7 2630QM, Conexant CX20590 - x11/kde5 installed, all ports latest - Various client machines (Win 10, FreeBSD 12 & 13, openSUSE, Debian, CentOS,...) - Today I recompiled all ports with PULSEAUDIO enabled (where it was off before), to be exact the following: kde5-5.15.4.19.04.0 virtualbox-ose-5.2.= 26_4 alsa-plugins-1.1.1_4 kmix-19.04.0 openal-soft-1.19.1_2 ffmpeg-4.1.3_2,1 mplayer-1.3.0.20190329_1 mpv-0.29.1_6,1 phonon-qt5-4.10.2_3 qt5-multimedia-5.12.2 QtAV-1.12.0_7 speech-dispatcher-0.8.8 espeak-1.48.04_6 libao-1.2.0_4 sdl-1.2.15_13,2 sdl2-2.0.9_2 vlc-3.0.6_12,4 freerdp-2.0.0.r4_2 plasma5-plasma-desktop-5.15.4_1 plasma5-plasma-5.15.4 qt5-webengine-5.12.2 (precise list of changes attached) - VirtualBox now supports Pulseaudio, Alsa, and OSS Result: - Sound in the VM basically never works - Tried with OSS, Alsa, and Pulseaudio backends - Today, and only once, sound worked haltingly in openSUSE Leap 15.0 when u= sing Pulseaudio (now it does not anymore) Note: - Sound from native applications works without problem - A few years ago, sound did work. I believe the last VirtualBox version wh= ere it was working was something like 4.0.8. Just curious: - Since enabling PULSEAUDIO (see above) I now have two audio volume mixers = in my panel. Can anybody explain what is going on? - Does anybody have sound working in VirtualBox clients? If yes, what magic= are you using? -- Martin
