No audio through Spice

[Ligan]

Hi,

I'm new to the whole virtualization thing and trying to get sound working. I believe to do that I need to use Spice to view the desktops of the VMS.

I've downloaded and installed Spice and I can connect just fine but no audio. I've tried all 3 of the audio hardware options and none of them work, I'm using Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS.

Sorry to add another quick question on, is it ever possible to run 2 monitors for a VM? It's only got 1 connected to the host but the one I'm viewing it from has 2.

Bios : Default (SeaBIOS)
Display : SPICE (QXL)
Machine : Default i440fx
SCSI Controller : VirtlO SCSI

motherboard is a B560m ITX which uses Realtek ALC897 Audio Codec also has an Intel I3 10100 cpu if that makes any difference

Thank you

Are you using the client on Windows? Sound is broken after SPICE Windows client version 7. There is more information in this thread.

I am, so there's been 3 versions of the client all with broken sound?! Mad.

I'll see if I can grab an older version or are there any other clients I can use?
