Audio from my XP VM on a MB Pro

Urgent! Audio from my XP VM on a MB Pro

Is audio supported at all? I keep reading about improvements, while in my XP VM I can't find any audio devices whatsoever. Sorry to make this urgent but I am trying to watch a WM webcast not supported by WM Player in OS X....I can see it perfectly on my VM, but I can't hear a thing

 

Just need a simple "yes" or "no"....does anyone have audio from their XP VM on a MP Pro? Thanks!

 

No problem....

Yes... Media player working fine here on MBP.

 

Audio fine here on both my MBP and iMac.

 

Working here

 

Any idea why my XP doesn't have a sound device? Is it because I installed using the very first beta? I am currently using beta 4.

 

david: yes, that's why. Shut down your VM, and click "Edit". Add a new device; make it a sound device, and accept the defaults.

 

Has anyone had any luck with getting sound on an intel mac mini?

 

thanks! yes, that fixed it.

 

Audio works for me on my MacBook Pro, but there does seem to be a small delay. Watching stuff from pokertvnetwork.com the audio is out of sync.

 

For people that seem to be having a problem with sound in XP...

The pb seems to stem from when XP is installed in an older version of Parallels that didn't support sound. Basically XP searched for a sound device, didn't find one then proceeded to disable the Windows Audio service.

When I enabled sound on beta4 the sound didn't work until I started that service and then put in on Automatic startup mode.

All works fine. Just thought I'd share that nugget.
