[Qemu-discuss] Windows 8 64 bit + hda sound is distorted

[David Woodfall]

The sound in my windows 8 VM is very distorted. Any clues on what
could be the problem? My startup script:

export QEMU_ALSA_ADC_DEV="dsp1"
export QEMU_ALSA_DAC_DEV="dsp1"
export QEMU_AUDIO_DRV="alsa"
export QEMU_ALSA_DAC_BUFFER_SIZE=8192

qemu-kvm \
   -enable-kvm \
   -cpu host \
   -m 1024 \
   -soundhw hda \
   -hda ~/qemu/win8/8.img \
   -vga cirrus \
   -boot order=c \
   -smb /tmp \
   -sdl

As you see, I've tried upping the buffer size but it hasn't made any difference.
