It might be unrelated, it might be similar. I'm using VirtualBox with a
console-only, pulse-disabled Debian stable. If this doesn't match your set up,
skip this e-mail :).
I have tried experimenting around with setting a different sound card without
much success. For me, it turned out most useful to have some background noise.
This keeps the sound card channel open and speech stops "stuttering". I
usually listen to very low-volume music or use white noise. Both are
word-arounds.

Good luck
Sebastian
