===Error message===
Error changing VM configuration: unsupported configuration: unknown audio type
'pulseaudio'
===Steps to reproduce===
1) Create a VM.
2) Remove the default sound card.
3) Edit VM config to use the following anywhere in <devices>:
<sound model='ich9'>
<codec type='micro'/>
<audio id='1'/>
</sound>
<audio id='1' type='pulseaudio' serverName='/run/user/1000/pulse/native'/>
I thought setting it to 'pa' would work but it didn't. I tried 'pulseaudio',
'pulse', and 'pa'. Neither worked.
I was about to help you but decided to let you deal with this one.
Instead of trying various stuff which is not documented to work
(hint: there's just one name for the pulseaudio driver in qemu).
RHEL(I used AlmaLinux 9) has a separate package named "qemu-kvm-audio-pa". I
installed it and tried to make a VM and it works there but not under Debian. This problem
seems to be Debian specific.
Here's a hint for you.
