[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1886330] Re: pulseaudio not working in Virtualbox
I can see a few issues in the log from your VM: 1. Buggy audio in the VM's kernel driver (says pulseaudio): jul 05 11:05:21 VM-Xubuntu-2004 pulseaudio[1406]: ALSA woke us up to write new data to the device, but there was actually nothing to write. jul 05 11:05:21 VM-Xubuntu-2004 pulseaudio[1406]: Most likely this is a bug in the ALSA driver 'snd_hda_intel'. Please report this issue to the ALSA developers. jul 05 11:05:21 VM-Xubuntu-2004 pulseaudio[1406]: We were woken up with POLLOUT set -- however a subsequent snd_pcm_avail() returned 0 or another value < min_avail. jul 05 11:05:21 VM-Xubuntu-2004 pulseaudio[1406]: Disabling timer-based scheduling because running inside a VM. 2. More problems with the VM's kernel driver: jul 05 11:05:28 VM-Xubuntu-2004 pulseaudio[1406]: Unable to set sw params: Permission denied jul 05 11:05:28 VM-Xubuntu-2004 pulseaudio[1406]: Failed to set software parameters: Permission denied jul 05 11:05:28 VM-Xubuntu-2004 pulseaudio[1406]: Error opening PCM device front:0: No such file or directory jul 05 11:05:28 VM-Xubuntu-2004 systemd[1399]: pulseaudio.service: Succeeded. 3. A couple of kernel crashes apparently relating to running out of memory in the VM. So I suggest: * Giving the VM more memory. * Running fewer apps in the VM. * Configuring the VM with a different type of virtual audio device (if you can). ** Package changed: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1886330 Title: pulseaudio not working in Virtualbox Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I run my "work" VMs and in Xubuntu pulse audio often does not start.

The main reason why PulseAudio exists is so that multiple apps can play sounds simultaneously, without having to stop and restart each app to get access to the audio hardware in turn. So I don't think having two windows open should be a problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1886330 Title: pulseaudio not working in Virtualbox Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I run my "work" VMs and in Xubuntu pulse audio often does not start.

Note that I run Firefox twice in two different windows. One window is for the WhatsApp website, the other windows is for youtube. This is the ONLY system, where I use two windows of Firefox both potentially using pulseaudio. The WhatsApp windows has used or tried to use pulseaudio in the past. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1886330 Title: pulseaudio not working in Virtualbox Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I run my "work" VMs and in Xubuntu pulse audio often does not start.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1886330] Re: pulseaudio not working in Virtualbox
Pulseaudio was running, but the music did not start. It stayed in the initial position. I have the impression that Firefox creates the problem. The music in quodlibet played. I stopped it and I started Firefox to play a music video from youtube, it did not play. Afterwards quodlibet stopped playing music also. Remember I only have the problem with Xubuntu and with none of the other Ubuntu flavors.

The attached info shows PulseAudio was running when you reported the bug: !!Sound Servers on this system !! Pulseaudio: Installed - Yes (/usr/bin/pulseaudio) Running - Yes Are you sure the problem is PulseAudio not running (the process should be named 'pulseaudio')? If so then please check for any crash files in /var/crash If you don't find any relevant crash files then please wait until the problem happens again and then run: journalctl -b0 > journal.txt and attach the resulting text file here. ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1886330 Title: pulseaudio not working in Virtualbox Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I run my "work" VMs and in Xubuntu pulse audio often does not start.
