[solved?!] Sound suddenly stopped working (arch in vbox vm)

Hi all,

I installed arch-i686 in a VirtualBox virtual machine a few days ago and at first, everything worked well, including audio. The guest additions are of course installed and running.

After making some updates with "pacman -Syu" the sound stopped working. There is no error message when I start e.g. vlc from a console and let it play an mp3-file. But there is no sound at all.

I already increased the volume of all the channels in kmix and alsamixer without success.

Can someone give me a hint?

Thanks in advance & kind regards,
jamesbond007.

Well, after a reboot of the host (not guest) os it now continues to work!

I don't understand why, but I'm happy about it nevertheless. smile
