sound

Hi, I have an M3 with macOS Tahoe 25.6 on Parallels Desktop 26 for Mac Pro version 26.3.2 (57398). When I use the microphone, the audio is muffled via the speaker and also reported by others on voice chats. This has happened on multiple versions of both Parallels and macOS. I've tried...

I am running Parallels Version 20.4.0 (55980) on macOS 15.5 (24F74) which in turn runs a macOS VM which is also 15.5. Host is running an M4 with 32GB RAM. I find that the microphone and sound sometimes works in the macOS VM, sometimes not. And I've never managed to get the camera working in the...

Request Would be great to have something that could route audio to the left or the right speaker (and/or left or right headphones too). If there is an equalizer that would be great too. Why Many of us have numerous things going on at the same time. Background music while also watching a...

Sometimes Record Screen does not include the system audio e.g. for some zoom meetings. There is a getaround with Black Hole. It would be great if it can be built-into the Screen Record tool.

I've been using Parallels pro for almost a year now, and among all virtualization solutions, it's probably the gold standard. But what I absolutely can't understand is why Parallels has such horrendous audio performance. I'm running the ARM version of Windows 11 on the latest Parallels 20. After...

When using Mac Virtual Display with an Apple Vision Pro, Windows 11 audio does not output via the headset. I have not found any other application that has issues with Mac Virtual Display audio. All Mac settings below are configured in Control Center. Audio was tested using Windows 11 Settings -...

I recently upgraded to Parallels Desktop 20, and updated the Parallels support package for my Ubuntu 20.04 VM. It's now trying to link my mac volume with my VM volume and it gets messed up. Can someone point me to the right config file to unlink the volume commands into the VM?

Hi! I have been using Windows 11 on Parallels 19 on a MacBook Pro M3 Max with no issues, but after updating my MacBook Pro to the new Sequoia 15.0.1 and updating Parallels to 20.0.1, suddenly there is no sound coming from the VM. When I try testing audio in Windows, the tests explicitly state...

Hi there, I purchased Parallels to use a Windows-only headset that has active cooling (HP Mindframe) because in summertime, my Sony WH-1000XM4 get really warm. I got it all working now and the setup was a breeze. So now I am streaming Spotify from Windows 11 while working in OSX. Unfortunately...

Windows 11 login chime sound very distorted and crackly on new M1 16" fully loaded - has anyone any ideas why and how to fix this? Many thanks in advance.

Hello, In addition to being able to add virtual NIC, printers, hard disks, CD, serial ports to a VM I think it would be great to be able to add virtual audio interfaces to a VM. Used in addition to Soundflower/Rogue Amoeba's Loopback this would allow to do some audio processing on the Mac and...

I run Windows 10 in a Parallels VM (Parallels Version 17.1.4 (51567)) in Coherence mode. Each time I switch from a Mac app to a Windows app, a VERY LOUD BEEP sound is played, hurting my ears when I have my earphones on! This is VERY ANNOYING! Is it possible to deactivate this nasty beep sound?

Good Afternoon All, I am not sure if I am the only one having this issue however, up until around a month ago, I was able to have sound within my linux VM's (to be more specific, I use both kali and Ubuntu). That being said, over time, the sound would occasionally stop working which would...

I have seen similar threads on this, but nothing has helped. I have the M! Mac, latest versions of Parallels, Windows 11, Parallels tools, MacOS. I am using a Presonus 6-8 USB interface, and Cakewalk Sonar Platinum DAW. I am connecting the interface to the Mac side, and setting the devices to...

Hi everyone. I'm officially back to Team Parallels after having used VMware Fusion for years. The reason is that Parallels actually runs Windows 11 ARM on M1 machines, while VMware is stuck making excuses for why they can't do it. Years ago, like maybe around 2012 or something, I switched from...

Hey all. I have a strange problem with windows under parallels. When playing games, the sound of windows sometimes decreases randomly, with the only way to getting it to its proper level being to wait a few seconds then it goes back to normal. The volume indicator does not change at all while...

After some time using Windows 10 or some other action (I wouldn't know which one) the sound and videos on macOs BigSur no longer work. In order for it to come back, I have to restart or shut down the Windows 10 VM. Even after the update it said to fix it. My Current Version: 17.1.0 (51516) Thanks.

I have a problem where the bluetooth mic volume in Windows 11 is very low. Around 14% at normal speaking volume. It used to be around 60% and the low volume impairs the functionality of my voice to text. Mic volume is fine on the Mac end. Internal mic volume is the same on both host and guest...

Latest parallels 16 and MacBook AIR m1 running ubuntu 20.04 as guest. The ubuntu that comes as an install option in parallels. Toolbox installed. I cant get any sound from linux and i have tried different settings in parallels. What could be wrong?

Hello all. Instead of sending the sound to VM windows, I want to keep the sound output under mac OS, cause I want to hear music from Mac's app instead of playing them on the VM win10 side, how can I do that? Also everytime when I close the VM, I have to reboot in order to normally play in my mac...
