Title: kvm: use PulseAudio instead of ALSA Status in QEMU: Incomplete Status in “kvm” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “kvm” package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: kvm kvm in jaunty prefers to use OSS drivers rather than ALSA: # dpkg -l | grep kvm ii kvm 1:84+dfsg-0ubuntu11 Full virtualization on i386 and amd64 hardwa # kvm -audio-help | grep ^Name Name: oss Name: alsa Name: sdl Name: pa Name: none Name: wav # Because of that, once a virtual machine with working audio card starts, the kvm grabs the audio card entirely for itself. Any subsequent operations on audio card either from the host machine, or from the other audio-enabled virtual machines lock up (apparently awaiting on on access to the audio card). The bug is echo of the corresponding debian bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=508018 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/393430/+subscriptions
