Streaming sound from virtual machine #63

Hi Everyone, I've been struggling for 2 days with JACK with no success. Here is my case:

  1. Running a virtual machine, which is a WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux).
  2. It has no physical sound card and aplay -l shows no devices as expected,
  3. Pulseaudio server can be launch with JACK modules,
  4. I want to send audio from this virtual machine to the Windows host,

Would something like the setup described above be possible with VBAN-Emitter?

Hi, sorry for the long delay before answer. Unfortunately, vban_emitter doesn't support the jack backend. Only vban_receptor does. If you want to use vban_emitter, you need an alsa setup.
