Known issue, likely unfixable in QEMU due to hard-coded constraints of the driver Windows uses (too small playback buffers). I gave up on hda, I'm happily using a passed-through USB headset now. Another known-to-work alternative is PCI passthrough of the host sound hardware. However, both approaches are no option when the host is out of reach. What seems to work better - but is lacking input support - is usb-audio. Maybe worth a try when you don't need a microphone. Jan
