I doubt that this problem was caused by the missing pulseaudio drivers. Just yesterday the SVN contained a bug which made VMs using software-virtualization crash. So you probably hit this revision. If the PulseAudio libraries cannot be found, the GUI will show you a nice error message and it will continue with no audio input/output, just tested that. Kind regards, Frank -- Dr.-Ing.
