[Qemu-devel] Linux KVM, Windows 7 guest choppy sound

[Erik Lotspeich]

Hi,

I apologize if this isn't the right venue for this message, but this
mailing list seems a bit more active than qemu-discuss.

Background:
I am running OpenSUSE 12.1. I fixed audio issues in VM guests by setting
the following in qemu.conf:

vnc_allow_host_audio = 1

I also set user= and group= to allow qemu-kvm to run as the same user as
I am logged in as. This allowed qemu-kvm to send audio to pulseaudio.

My issue:
I am using the ICH6 virtual audio driver in my VMs. In my Linux VMs, the
sound works perfectly without any issues. In my Windows 7 VM, the sound
works with the exception of static and choppiness in the audio. Has
anyone else seen this or have any ideas for a fix?

Thanks!

Regards

Erik
