Audio missing with applications on Windows 98

Reported by: Eddy Smith Owned by:
Component: audio Version: VirtualBox 5.2.16

Guest type: Windows Host type: Windows

Description

When I first install Windows 98, the audio and start sound work as expected but any other applications such as the built in media player are silent. The only audio I can hear is the Windows notification sounds and everything else is silent. I'm unsure as to whether this is being caused by something I'm doing or if this is being caused by a VirtualBox bug.

I installed Windows Me on a different VM to see if this affects that version as well. There's a weird beep that repeats at a regular interval as soon as Windows is finishing loading after setup is done. I restarted the Windows Me VM to see if that fixed the problem and there's no sound at all now. I clicked on the "Sound and Multimedia" control panel and clicked on play for "Exclamation". The control acts as if it's playing the sound forever and it doesn't stop even though there's no sound. I assume that this problem will occur for any sound that is played. I will attach a log of this VM.

I wonder whether this problem is related to another problem I reported about a couple of years ago. I just found the bug report.
