Audio stopped worked (it was working with VB 2.0), and now I see huge log files with the below repeated thousands and thousands of times: The VM crashes after a few hours of use. Using ALSA instead of Pulse for audio seems to fix the problems. {{{ 03:04:47.974 Pulse: Failed to determine the writable size: Connection terminated 03:04:47.985 Pulse: Failed to determine the writable size: Connection terminated 03:04:47.995 Pulse: Failed to determine the writable size: Connection terminated 03:04:48.005 Pulse: Failed to determine the writable size: Connection terminated 03:04:48.015 Pulse: Failed to determine the writable size: Connection terminated 03:04:48.027 Pulse: Failed to determine the writable size: Connection terminated 03:04:48.039 Pulse: Failed to determine the writable size: Connection terminated 03:04:48.049 Pulse: Failed to determine the writable size: Connection terminated 03:04:48.060 Pulse: Failed to determine the writable size: Connection terminated 03:04:48.070 Pulse: Failed to determine the writable size: Connection terminated 03:04:48.080 Pulse: Failed to determine the writable size: Connection terminated }}}" defect closed audio VirtualBox 2.1.0 worksforme other Linux
