1 Hi,
2
3 I have a host (centos6) running Gentoo as a guest on Virtualbox-4.2.4.
4 However, I am not able to get audio working on the Gentoo guest.
5
6 The configuration is the following:
7
8 == Host settings for Guest VM ==
9 Alsa Audio Driver
10 Intel HD Audio
11
12 == Gentoo VM ==
13 Linux-3.6.8
14 lsmod|grep snd
15 snd_hda_codec_idt 44870 1
16 snd_hda_intel 20177 3
17 snd_hda_codec 59120 2 snd_hda_codec_idt,snd_hda_intel
18 snd_pcm 59535 3 snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_intel
19 snd_page_alloc 5809 2 snd_pcm,snd_hda_intel
20
21 The alsamixer seems to recognize the virtual audio card correctly.
22 However I am not able to get any audio output on smplayer,mplayer or
23 even chromium.
24
25 Any ideas? I also have a Windows Guest (Host settings Pulseaudio/Intel
26 HD Audio) and the sound works there without problems.
