"No output devices found" - Audio issue
Posted: 5. May 2019, 01:38
Hi,
I am having an issue where I am presented with no output devices on my macOS guest. Specifically, in the Output tab of the Sound settings in System Preferences, I see "No output devices found" in place of the device listing.
I have tried fiddling with the audio settings in the VM configuration. I have also tried adding kernel extensions that would supposedly help but when looking further into that, I realised that was perhaps for the Hackintosh setups which is not going to work for me as I am running on Apple hardware. I was not coming across many articles online where the guest and the host are the same beasts or I was a tad reluctant to try suggestions because the articles themselves were dated.
So, I have decided it is time to try and reach out to the VirtualBox community in hopes someone has solved this before and could share some knowledge or at least point me in the right direction.
The guest and host run on macOS Mojave 10.14.4 and I am using VirtualBox 6.0.6.
Below is what I felt might be relevant in terms of the VM configuration settings based on what I have read here and I have attached a start up and run log that will give more insight to help with troubleshooting. I believe the actual VM set up is fine and I have validated that with a couple of forum posts here.
System
Base Memory: 4096 MB (4 GB)
CPUs: 4
Chipset: ICH9
Audio
Host Driver: CoreAudio
Controller: Intel HD Audio
Host
MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2017)
Model: MacBookPro14,3
OS: macOS Mojave
Version: 10.14.4 (18E226)
Any help would be appreciated and I thank those in advance. If any other information is needed, please let me know.
Thank you!
