Problem/Justification
Currently, it is not possible to have sound in a virtual machine when using Spice display.
Impact
Adding a sound device will allow us to listen to sound in a virtual machine using the Spice display.
User Story
Having sound in a virtual machine will provide a more native experience instead of using remote desktop protocols.
SPICE is bad anyway. And only meant as a way to install the VM.
I suggest you use either a Parsec or Moolight/Sunshine setup for GPU accelerated Desktops with sound.
Or RDP (not for GPU accelerated stuff)
A sound device could be useful for some.
TN need to add a lot of missing devices and options to the VM system, which I think they will do now there is an Enterprise market for it as well as the home server guys.
Use RDP and you will have sound. And copy&paste. And folder sharing. And your printer. And …
Are you sure, do you not need a sound card on the VM?
Not if you use RDP and the VM OS is Windows. It will create a “Remote Audio” device and you will have playback on your desktop.
VNC and Spice emulate a locally connected VGA card - you cannot do all of the nice things with that. Just like you cannot copy&paste or play back audio from a physical monitor that is three buildings away.
Just use RDP, folks.
