RE: [Xen-users] Sound Driver

["Nick Couchman" <Nick.Couchman@xxxxxxxxx>]

The drivers included with Windows should support the various sound cards that 
you can enable for Xen HVMs.  There's a parameter in the Xen config file to 
turn on sound, and also to set the type of sound driver - see the example 
config files.

On a side note, in my experience, *none* of my Xen Windows VMs has sound 
cards/drivers installed, and *all* of them support sound via RDP without this 
functionality.
