VM machines question… I have watched many VM type videos but cannot get the actual created VM to play sound. The VM I have created is a Windows Pro N installation (subset of Windows Enterprise Edition), which is NOT registered with MS.

Have all QEMU-KVM updates seemingly available.

What version of qemu?

I have a TUF Gaming mb, an X570-PLUS {WI-FI) with 32G memory on a 6 core Ryzen 5600 with tons of storage available.

This probably doesn't matter unless you are trying to pass through a host device (please correct me if I'm wrong)

Audio:  Device-1: AMD Oland/Hainan/Cape Verde/Pitcairn HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 7000 Series] 
           vendor: PC Partner Limited driver: snd_hda_intel v: kernel bus-ID: 08:00.1 
           chip-ID: 1002:aab0 class-ID: 0403 
           Device-2: AMD Starship/Matisse HD Audio vendor: ASUSTeK driver: snd_hda_intel 
           v: kernel bus-ID: 0a:00.4 chip-ID: 1022:1487 class-ID: 0403 
           Sound Server-1: ALSA v: k5.16.0-5mx-amd64 running: yes 
           Sound Server-2: PulseAudio v: 14.2 running: yes 

This is the host, not the guest, right? What arguments are you using to start qemu?
