Note that ALSA support is still not working but we are plannig to make
it work (patches are welcome). Note further that the OSS does normally
not allow more than one instance using the sound hardware. So if you don't
get sound working on a Linux host check the VBox release log files (can
be found in ~/.VirtualBox/Machines/<Guest>/Logs/*) for any messages about
OSS not accessible/busy). In that case 'lsof | grep /dev/dsp' might help
to find the application which is accessing the sound device (most probably
the sound daemon of your GUI).

Kind regards,

Frank
