[Bug 1016969] Re: daily live cd boots silent in virtualbox

[Joanmarie]

I stumbled across this problem via Google. Fedora 17 host, Fedora 18
guest, and -- you guessed it -- VirtualBox. And the symptoms are the
same. I had no audio for the users until I switched those from the
default to the LFE.

On the bright side for you, it does not seem to a downstream bug. ;)
Sadly, so far, it's not clear to me whose bug it is.

Title:
  daily live cd boots silent in virtualbox

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  in a virtualbox VM booting the quantal 64 bit daily live CD it boots to ubiquity but there are no drums and ctrl+s to start orca does not start speech (though orca starts)
  clicking on try ubuntu and booting to a desktop allows me to see the pulse audio settings, the two Analog output devices don't work but the LFE devices work fine.

  For users depending on Orca booting to a silent desktop is a critical
  issue.
