[vbox-dev] Problem with pulseaudio

One of the openSUSE users reports a regression that likely happened between 
6.0.12 and 6.0.14. His Linux guests have a problem connecting with the 
pulseaudio server. The guest's log shows a number of the following:

00:04:50.850104 PulseAudio: Retrieving server information ...
00:05:16.449232 PulseAudio: Error enumerating PulseAudio server properties
00:05:16.449747 VMMDev: GuestHeartBeat: Guest is alive (gone 51 199 541 604 ns)
00:05:20.449775 VMMDev: vmmDevHeartbeatFlatlinedTimer: Guest seems to be 
unresponsive. Last heartbeat received 4 seconds ago

After a little over 3 minutes, the tries are abandoned and the system becomes 
responsive.

Is this a known problem? I do not usually use audio in the guests, thus I have 
no idea if the problem exists on my systems.

Thanks,

Larry
