+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]).
