Thanks for the reply Gilboa. I had given up on getting a response to my email and almost didn't spot it. It's disappointing that nobody from Red Hat feels like it's worth responding to. The only thing I could find in Bugzilla was 520228, a very similar problem with F11 from Aug 2009. Though this pertains to my Fedora desktop at home, possibly my Red Hat rep at work can find a resource who would share some insight on the problem.
Anyway, I switched QEMU_AUDIO_DRV from "alsa" to "pa" and that made the problem worse, sound went out a few minutes after starting the guest. I don't have any experience running KVM under F12 but I am running Virtualbox under F12 at work (no hardware virtual extentions) and sound works great in my XP guest. What exactly are the "connection refused" messages you're getting from qemu? The only unusual messages I'm getting are occasional bursts of this message: Jun 11 23:52:51 host pulseaudio[2651]: ratelimit.c: 676 events suppressed Jun 12 10:10:06 host pulseaudio[2651]: ratelimit.c: 676 events suppressed Jun 12 11:02:53 host pulseaudio[2651]: ratelimit.c: 685 events suppressed In Gentoo I only had this problem when I ran KVM as a module, not when it was compiled into the kernel. Unfortunately nowdays compiling a custom kernel in Red Hat/Fedora is a little more involved and not really worth re-doing every time a new kernel update comes out. -jah > Seeing the same. > My script defaults to PA. > > Looking at the console, I see that qemu is getting connection refused. > I'd imagine that the problem is that my scripts runs as root (I use only > bridged networks), and PA (per-user) is getting rejected. > > What I don't understand is - why it worked just fine under F12, and why > it doesn't work now?
