So, after testing I can confirm that the patch works. Thank you @disp584!
What I can say about the sound is:
- The patch didn’t affect non-win qubes as I can tell. I had already set sys-audio as
default_audiovmfor all VMs in order to be able to use sound in disposables (I don’t know any other way to achieve this), and then manually set VMs not to have audio (templates, netVMs, some sys*VMs, vault, etc…) and this setting remained after this patch. But, it seems I had to reapply...audiovm sys-audiofor win qubes! I know this because in my quoted topic I have already stated thatqvm-tagsouptut sys-audio as audiovm, but after this patch I didn’t have this tag, so as I said I reapplied default audioVM and had to do that for all win qubes. - Sound is not that clear like in dom0. But, that remark is for sys-audio in general, not exclusively related to win qubes.
- As I hopefully suspected, sound in sys-audio is much, much less choppy then in dom0 and these are great news! It’s almost fluent!
What is your experience with this?
Since the patch is trivial, I’ll tag @jevank, and I hope he’ll get us an update soon.
