In order to get kvm to use it, I set the environment variable QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=pa. I had been using sudo to start the VM, and that kept this environment variable from being used. I did a "sudo setcap cap_net_admin+ep /usr/bin/kvm" in order to be able to run kvm under a normal user account. Now the sound works quite well. > That is good to hear. But you are giving up on a lot of security if you're running kvm as root (or with CAP_NET_ADMIN). qemu supports setting up the network externally and running with no special privileges. Of course, it may not matter for your use case. -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
