Re: [PLUG] dedicating a sound card to a vm
|
Right now I have the 2496 working with OSS4 in the host. I just enabled the onboard sound in the bios but the host is still using the 2496. I want to know if I can somehow enable both cards in the host, so I have two sound cards, and use the onboard sound for the VM. Right now when I start vmplayer it tries to use the Maudio card for sound but the sound comes out garbled. Is it possible to configure 2 sound cards on the host? Do they both need to be OSS4 or can I use alsa for one?
Thanks
Michael

VM and the 2496 to the host? In my experience, anything that works on
the host works on the VM (but not simultaneously).
What happens in the VM when the host sees the 2496 and you enable the
onboard sound?
Can you get the host to see both?
