Hiya,
I at least have found the VMWare audio quality to be quite acceptable,
even with software speech. I use espeak instead of flite, both for personal
reasons and because flite causes static on the emulated es1371.
Granted, I'm mostly intending this VM as a Linux server, so won't be
playing much MP3 audio or the like on it. But we'll see.
Thanks,
Zack.
