Then the keyboard bell rings and then the guests Gnome desktop appaers to be frozen for a couple of minutes and then returns back to normal. This is very simple and quick to reproduce. {{{ Solaris 11.4 latest SRU fail: Host Driver: PulseAudio Controller: ICH AC97 Solaris 11.4.0.15.0 aka 11.4 FCS fail: Host Driver: OSS Audio Driver Controller: ICH AC97 Solaris Trunk 11.5.0.65.0 fail: Host Driver: PulseAudio Controller: ICH AC97 }}} {{{ WORKAROUND: Disable the audio device in the VM settings. }}} It sounds like some problem with audio, but I don't know if anyone runs Solaris on real hardware that has audio and can verify if that happens as well on bare metal using Gnome. This happen regardless whether or not one uses the Gnome terminal or just a simple Xterm. Same result. That might be a bug in our audio emulation or in Solaris. And when it is hung serial console access works fine so it is just Gnome that is stuck/frozen for a couple of minutes. The problem does not show up with Solaris 10 or OpenIndiana based guest VMs running their corresponding Gnome desktops.",defect,new,audio,VirtualBox 6.1.4,,solaris gnome keyboard audio bell terminal,,Solaris,other
