Error in VMware audio initalisation #3084

Closed Stepanchikitsme closed 30 minutes ago

Stepanchikitsme commented 2 hours ago

Expected Behaviour - What do you think that should happen?

When booting OS in VMware (playing startup sound), there should be a startup sound

Actual Behaviour - What unexpectedly happens?

I'm getting this exception: No AC97-compatible device could be found - the reset timeout has expired.

Reproduction - How did you get this error to appear?

Boot an OS in VMware and try to play some sound. In VirtualBox it'll work perfect, but VMware...

Version - Were you using the User Kit or Dev Kit? And what User Kit version or Dev Kit commit (Cosmos, IL2CPU, X#)?

Using the last version of Dev kit

AC97 is not supported in VMWare. AFAIK, VMWare can only emulate an Intel HD Audio controller (which is the default) or a legacy ES1371 sound card.

Is there any community driver for any of them?

Not that I know of, no. I think that VMware has undocumented support for Sound Blaster 16, though, if you modify the VMX file to have sound.virtualDev set to sb16. I have made a partially implemented Sound Blaster 16 driver for Cosmos a while ago, but it's for an older version of the API, and is quite buggy, so you will probably need to make some major adjustments to it.

I'll take a look. Thank you much!
