Re: KVM And Ubuntu-Mate

["K0LNY_Glenn" <glenn@ervin.email>]

Hi John,
Yes, I have sound in the Linux, and in the use of KVM, and in the windows 
10, but the only place I did not seem to have sound was in the VM of the 
Ubuntu I was trying to install.
Maybe I had never gotten to the point where I could call up speech in the 
installer, but usually KVM takes you to a point in the installer where 
speech can be enabled.
At this point, I don't know if the latest Ubuntu has trouble with some sound 
cards, or going through a hypervisor, or if I had not reached to a point 
where I can call up Orca.
But when I toggle out of KVM, my working Ubuntu speaks  again.

How did you install the VM if you did not have any sound from the get go?

A sound card supported by Windows does not mean that it's supported by
linux!

do you get any sound at all in the VM?
