Audio Device
~~~~~~~~~~~~
To add an audio device run the following command:
----
qm set <vmid> -audio0 device=<device>
----
Supported audio devices are:
* `ich9-intel-hda`: Intel HD Audio Controller, emulates ICH9
* `intel-hda`: Intel HD Audio Controller, emulates ICH6
* `AC97`: Audio Codec '97, useful for older operating systems like Windows XP
NOTE: The audio device works only in combination with SPICE. Remote protocols
like Microsoft's RDP have options to play sound. To use the physical audio
device of the host use device passthrough (see
xref:qm_pci_passthrough[PCI Passthrough] and
xref:qm_usb_passthrough[USB Passthrough]).
