Not really sure if this or the virtual forum is the right one but I’m posting here since my problem is with sound.

I had a perfectly working Opensuse 11.2 (64 bit) and using it for music/video etc as well as Virtual Box.
I have now upgraded, yes, upgraded to 12.2 from the dvd. That process went fine and most things work as expected.

Now what happens with the sound is that it works in all kind of players VLC, banshee, amarok etc. until I start one instance of Virtual Box, I use version 4.1.22 from Oracle.
The sound disappears when I log in to one of the virtual machines.
VBox uses pulse audio

lol,

and now it works.

The update from today fixed the issue.

Hmm, I was too quick there.

It is on a first come first serve basis now. If I start the sound program first, it keeps the sound bot if I start the vbox first it will take the sound card.
