When starting a VM with OSS as the host-side sound driver configured, I get the following message: ""Some HDA audio streams (PCM Input) could not be opened. Guest applications generating audio output or depending on audio input may hang. Make sure your host audio device is working properly. Check the logfile for error messages of the audio subsystem."" I'm also attaching the VBox.log file for the corresponding VM (note that it doesn't matter which VM I start, be it a Windows or Linux guest, with either HD Audio or AC97 guest-side audio driver).",defect,closed,audio,VirtualBox 5.1.6,fixed,"sound, audio, OSS, Linux host",,all,Linux
