I have no more sound on following guests : Windows 7 32bits, Windows 7 64bists, Windows XP
Getting following message in VBox.log (filtered on DSound string)
[quote] Driver <string> = "DSoundAudio" (cb=12) DriverName <string> = "DSoundAudio" (cb=12) Audio: Found 5 devices for driver 'DSoundAudio' DSound: Creating capture buffer failed with E_FAIL DSound: Creating capture buffer failed with E_FAIL [/quote]Host is Windows 7 Pro 64bits running VirtualBox 5.2.30 r130521 - Sound works fine on the Host (SoundMAX Intergrated Digital High Definition Audio)
Issue occured suddenly on a old release 4.3.2 and reading all previous threads decided to upgrade to more fresh release 5.2.30
( Warning HostAudioNotResponding suddenly occured on all guests but now has fully disappeared with latest release)
Guests have these main settings configured : (same configuration for all those guests)

Unfortunately the Intel driver cannot be found anymore on major sites and is not offered through the Windows "Driver Update Software..." command
I'm really stuck and would appreciate helpful support.
Thanks by advance.
