[Qemu-devel] qemu-2.4.1 fails when compiled against pulseaudio

[John Frankish]

If I compile qemu-2.4.1 like this:

CC="gcc -mtune=generic -Os -pipe" CXX="g++ -mtune=generic -Os -pipe
-fno-exceptions -fno-rtti" ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
--localstatedir=/var --libexecdir=/usr/local/lib/qemu
--interp-prefix=/usr/local/share/qemu --disable-smartcard-nss
--disable-curses --disable-brlapi --audio-drv-list="oss alsa sdl"
--target-list="i386-softmmu i386-linux-user x86_64-softmmu
x86_64-linux-user" --smbd=/usr/local/sbin/smbd

find . -name config-host.mak -type f -exec sed -i 's/-O2//g' {} \;

make

..it works fine.

If I add pulseaudio dev files and use --audio-drv-list="oss alsa sdl pa",
then "qemu-system-x86_64 -blah-blah" opens a window, displays the bios
message and stops. Strace shows qemu is not hung, but loops continually.

The same happens with qemu-2.2.1 and qemu-2.5.0.

Are there some trouble-shooting steps I can try (strace does not refer to
pulseaudio).
