qemu/kvm audio driver failure

Thanks to windows fall creator update + pacman -Syu, I no longer have working audio in my windows 10 virtual machine.  I've used the redhat provided virtio* drivers to resolve the other driver issues which appeared at the same time, but no matter what type of speakers I add to the VM (ac97, pcspk, ich6, etc.), the machine will not recognize that there is an audio device attached.  Below is my xml for the win10 VM.  The bottom 3 env commands are my in-progress attempts at switching to PulseAudio as a more optimal solution, but are not what I'm aiming at with this post.

tl;dr: Audio device not recognized in VM.  Let me know if I'm being a moron or what other information I need to provide.  Please and Thank you.
