Configuring Sound Adapter
If your host operating system is configured for sound, you
can enable sound for a virtual machine. Currently only PCM
sound output is supported (no synthesizer output and no
sound input).
The virtual sound device is compatible with a Creative
Technology Sound Blaster® 16 audio device. It supports
sound in Windows 95,
Windows 98, Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Linux guest operating
systems.
The sound device is disabled by default and
must be enabled in the Configuration Editor.
To enable sound support:
- Open the Configuration Editor.
- Click the Sound entry.
- Click Install
to add a virtual sound card.
If you don't have sound on your host, or if it used by
another application, you will get an
error message when you try to run the VM, and the sound
device will be disconnected. Use the Devices
menu entry to reconnect it.
- Click OK or Save to exit the Configuration Editor or continue
to add or modify another feature.
