If you are using the snd_ens1371 sound card driver ("/sbin/lsmod | grep
snd" should give you some idea), you may be experiencing this bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=496714
ens1371: snd_pcm_avail() overflow breaks sound under kvm/vmware/etc.

If you have different hardware, you can file a new bug against
PulseAudio on bugzilla.redhat.com providing similar diagnostic
information (like the output of "pulseaudio -vvvv").  If the problem is
with VMWare itself, Fedora will not be able to help, but if it is that
should route your report to the right person.

I assume you are running Fedora 11 Rawhide inside VMWare; it would also
be helpful to note the host operating system, etc.

The need to force-quit VMWare is a separate issue; again I don't know if
that's a problem with Fedora or VMWare.  If it's the latter, you'd need
to report the problem to them...somehow.  I don't see an obvious place
on their web site to do that, though if you have purchased the product
you may have the right to contact technical support.
