Much of the VirtualBox UI is not accessible but because it supports configuration via the command line, it is fairly accessible that way. For the audio you can do

VBoxManage modifyvm 805ef8e7-44f9-49db-8bcb-756f52d7ac6f -audio coreaudio
VBoxManage modifyvm 805ef8e7-44f9-49db-8bcb-756f52d7ac6f -audiocontroller ac97

where the long number/letter string is the UUID of the virtual machine you want to change. You can get that by doing

VBoxManage list vms

To fire things up you can do

startvm 805ef8e7-44f9-49db-8bcb-756f52d7ac6f

Poke around at the VBoxManage command as it has a lot of stuff in theretes

With coreaudio and the ac97 audio controller Jaws seemed to work fine.

Hi all.

I'm wondering if virtual box still has problems and if vm ware fusion is still a better product to use for running windows on the mac instead of using virtual box at this time?

I like the fact virtual box is free but I hear there are issues with usb and sound drivers using virtual box. Is this true using the latest version of virtual box?

Also is parallels still inaccessible?

Thanks to anyone who can answer the above queries.
