Audio changed in the code, it would be nice to understand which version exactly broke it (if 5.2.18 or 5.2.20), and then open a ticket upstream!

[Bug 1840749] Re: Sound problems since ~5.2.3x
I knew from my upgrading: 5.1.38-dfsg-0ubuntu1.16.04.3 (xenial) ok 5.2.32-dfsg-0~ubuntu18.04.1 (bionic) - fail 6.0.6-dfsg-1 (disco) - fail I think but I'm not sure Bionic release (5.2.10 worked as well) So I started a poor mans binary search with the upstream packages. 5.2_5.2.32-132073 - fail 5.2_5.2.28-130011 - fail 5.2_5.2.20-125813 - fail 5.2_5.2.16-123759 - ok 5.2_5.2.14-123301 - ok 5.2_5.2.4-119785 - dkms error on install 5.5.2_2.0-118431 - dkms error on install --- 5.1_5.1.38-122592 - ok Unfortunately time ran out then .18 or .20 is the breaking point. I can easily check that out next time. But once I do so is there a common best practice to collect debug info to report that maybe upstream?

Hi Gianfranco, thanks for the reply - didn't know you were on this package as well. o/ I tried different sound options on both levels: 1. I exchanged graphics cards on the Host and used the onboard sound so overal I had a) sound over HDMI on embedded graphics b) sound over HDMI on dedicated graphics c) sound on analog output (line out) 2. I tried various sound options a) SB16 (which is the default for win98 guests) b) AC97 c) ICH (no luck with drivers there) In general "windows" sounds worked e.g. wav and startup. But all of them shared that they lost sound when the game initialized. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1840749 Title: Sound problems since ~5.2.3x To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/+bug/1840749/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The new install conformed that the version in Xenial works fine (same definition, same images).
